Should I get a new or pre-owned Mercedes-Benz SUV?

Shopping for the right vehicle is already a challenge without tossing in the need to decide between a new or pre-owned SUV. However, you can get the best of both worlds in the Certified Pre-Owned Mercedes-Benz SUV options. So, should you get a new, used, or CPO model here in Scottsdale, AZ? Let’s take a look!

New vs Used vs CPO

Perks & drawbacks of buying new:

  • You’ll have the latest technologies
  • No worries about hidden problems
  • It should last longer than a car that is older
  • However, new cars are pricey
  • Immediate depreciation once you drive it off the lot

Perks & drawbacks of buying used:

  • Used vehicles are less expensive than new
  • It’s easier to get a used car with poor credit
  • Less depreciation over the years
  • However, you need to watch out for scams
  • It’s more difficult to rely on used cars

Perks & drawbacks of buying CPO
