You Need to Consider Buying a Used Chevy

So why opt for a used Chevy over a new model? For most drivers, the decision comes down to price. While it always feels nice to get behind the wheel of a brand-new vehicle, it’s not always the best investment when one really starts to look at the numbers, which is why vehicles are such a great deal for drivers looking to minimize depreciation. A new vehicle loses as much as eleven percent of its value as soon as it’s driven off the lot, and this trend continues well into the first few years of ownership. In fact, after five years, a new vehicle will lose as much as 40 percent of its value, making it very difficult to recoup the investment in the secondary market. A used Chevy, on the other hand, has probably already gone through its most rapid period of depreciation by the time you get behind the wheel, providing you with the same ride the first owner enjoyed without having to throw money out of the window.

When asked why they tend to avoid the used market, many drivers cite a sense of uncertainty that comes with buying a pre-owned vehicle. That’s understandable, and while some fly-by-night operations and private sellers have certainly earned this reputation, we make it our job to ensure you’re confident about your purchase from Ryan Chevrolet. Many of the used vehicles we sell are part of Chevy’s Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) program, a thorough process that ensures only the best pre-owned vehicles end up at our lot. In order to qualify as a Chevy CPO vehicle, each car, truck, or SUV has to meet a rigorous set of standards and have spent less than six years or 75,000 miles on the road. CPO vehicles also have to have a clean title and pass an exhaustive 172-point inspection in order to qualify. Any CPO vehicle that passes the test will come with two warranties as well as six years or 100,000 miles of roadside assistance, as well as a free CARFAX Vehicle History Report, a trial of OnStar Services, and a trial subscription to SiriusXM Satellite Radio.

What Are Some of the Vehicles You Can Find in Our Inventory

A quick look at our inventory shows just how comprehensive the modern Chevy lineup is. Never one to be left behind, Chevy has gone all-in when it comes to the electric vehicle (EV) trend. The automaker has won praise from drivers and critics alike for its Bolt EV and Bolt EUV, which provide drivers with both car and SUV-style EVs that are efficient, reliable, and, best of all, affordable. Starting at a low price and boasting a range of up to 259 miles, the Bolt EV is one of the most affordable EVs on the market, which goes a long way in improving access for all drivers regardless of their budget.

Of course, no matter what new innovations hit the market, Chevy will probably always be known for its flagship pickup, the Silverado. One of the country’s best-selling vehicles, the Silverado regularly ranks as one of the most popular pickups on the market thanks to a seamless fusion of performance, power, and convenience. For those looking for that same legendary Chevy pickup performance in a smaller package, take the midsize Colorado out for a test drive. Chevy has also made a significant impact in the SUV world with its class-leading full-size Tahoe. With seating for up to eight passengers and all the power drivers have come to expect from the Chevy brand, it’s primed to become your new favorite SUV.

For those looking for something a little more thrilling, the Chevy Corvette is a timeless option. The luxury sports car has been turning heads since its debut in 1953 and has the distinction of being the only two-seat sports car produced by a major United States auto manufacturer. The perfect excuse for a little high-octane fun, the Corvette is also an exceptionally good deal, thanks to its stellar resale value. As we mentioned before, depreciation can really take a toll on your wallet, but classic sports cars like the Corvette are a little more insulated from this unfortunate economic reality. The Corvette has been recognized time and time again for retaining its value. These are only a few of the many options you will find in our used inventory.
