(February 15, 2017) ATLANTA — The editors at Autotrader have released their list of the best deals on certified pre-owned (CPO) vehicles available in February. Qualified shoppers looking for a great deal will fall in love with these opportunities to get a like-new vehicle for a fraction of a new car price.

"Not everyone can spend a fortune for a new car, but the potential repair bills from a modern used car can deter shoppers," said Brian Moody, executive editor at Autotrader. "CPO vehicles strike a good balance between price and peace of mind. They're lightly used, undergo a rigorous inspection and are backed by lengthy manufacturer warranties."

To help vehicle shoppers find that special CPO vehicle this February, the editors of Autotrader have compiled this list of the industry's top CPO deals and incentives. 

Acura's CPO program offers 7 years or 100,000 miles of powertrain coverage from the original sale date. While that may raise your eyebrows, what Acura is offering in February is even more appealing. Through the end of the month, qualified shoppers can get 0.9 percent interest for up to 36 months on all certified pre-owned vehicles.

BMW's CPO warranty includes bumper-to-bumper coverage for up to 6 years or 100,000 miles from the car's original sale date. This month, BMW is upping the ante with an attractive low-interest offer. Qualified buyers can get 0.9 percent interest for up to 36 months on certified pre-owned 2013 and 2014 models.

Honda's CPO program is a top pick, as it offers 7 years of powertrain coverage, plus an extra year of bumper-to-bumper coverage on top of the factory warranty. And in February, it gets even better. This month, Honda is also offering qualified shoppers 1.9 percent interest for up to 36 months on all CPO Odyssey, Pilot, Accord and Civic models.

Jaguar's CPO program is highly impressive, as it touts 7 years or 100,000 miles of bumper-to-bumper coverage, with zero deductible. Pair that with the incentives Jaguar is offering in February, and you've got an exceptional deal. Through the end of the month, qualified shoppers can get 1.9 percent interest for 60 months or 2.9 percent for up to 72 months.

Lincoln's CPO program stands out among luxury car brands with its 6-year / 100,000-mile bumper-to-bumper coverage. In February, qualified buyers also benefit from an excellent low-interest-rate offer. This month, Lincoln is offering 2.99 percent interest for up to 66 months — a great deal over an exceptionally long term.

Nissan's CPO program keeps things competitive with 7 years or 100,000 miles of powertrain coverage, though it doesn't boast any additional bumper-to-bumper coverage. Throughout February, qualified shoppers can also get 1.95 percent interest for up to 36 months or 3.95 percent for up to 72 months on any certified pre-owned model.

Toyota's CPO program is fairly standard, with 7 years or 100,000 miles of powertrain protection, plus an additional year or 12,000 miles of bumper-to-bumper coverage once the factory warranty expires. In February, qualified shoppers can get an even better offer with 1.9 percent interest for up to 60 months on any CPO vehicle — including the recently released iM hatchback, formerly branded a Scion.

Volkswagen's CPO program adds 2 years or 24,000 miles of bumper-to-bumper coverage on top of the brand's original 3-year / 36,000-mile coverage. It gets even more enticing this month with the addition of a low-interest deal for qualified shoppers. Throughout February, drivers interested in a CPO Volkswagen can get 1.49 percent interest for up to 60 months.
