Joining the ranks of our certified pre-owned cars for sale isn't something that any used car can do. Only the top of the used-car pack can make it in. So what sets a Certified by Volvo vehicle apart? It has to pass several key steps with flying colors.
First, the car or SUV being considered for certification must have less than 80,000 miles logged. A CARFAX® Vehicle History Report™ will confirm this mileage and reveal key vehicle quality metrics; for example, if the Volvo vehicle has anything except for a clean, unbranded title on the report, it'll be immediately disqualified. You'll get a copy of this report as you shop our Certified by Volvo inventory.
The most important step is an in-depth inspection by our certified Volvo technicians. A manufacturer-provided checklist covering over 170 points guides them, and with a keen eye for detail, our technicians pore over everything from cabin carpeting to the engine's inner workings.
We perform any necessary repairs or component replacements at our service center with genuine Volvo parts. Then, we'll road-test the vehicle to check that it drives just as beautifully. If the Volvo vehicle satisfies all criteria, it will be crowned a Certified by Volvo vehicle, join our certified pre-owned (CPO) inventory, and gain a powerful warranty plus further confidence-inspiring benefits.
The Volvo CPO warranty is designed for long-lasting driver confidence. It's a five-year1 factory-backed exclusionary warranty with unlimited miles of coverage, zero deductible on warranty-covered visits, repairs with genuine Volvo parts, and the option to upgrade to ten years of coverage.2 Plus, it's a fully-transferable warranty.
Alongside this warranty coverage, your Certified by Volvo purchase will include a CARFAX® BuyBack Guarantee3 to protect you from rare issues like a misrepresented title, round-the-clock Volvo Roadside Assistance coverage during your warranty period for help like flat tire changes, a complimentary one-year Volvo Cars app subscription,4 and a complimentary three-month SiriusXM® All-Access subscription.
Whether it’s a certified pre-owned Volvo S90 or a certified pre-owned Volvo XC60 for sale, choosing Certified by Volvo means choosing the vehicle you want with the confidence-inspiring quality you deserve.

The Certified by Volvo warranty includes unlimited miles of coverage and lasts for five years.1 You'll get the opportunity to upgrade it to ten years of coverage2 if you so choose. Still, even if you stick to the standard coverage, it's a fully-transferable warranty with zero-deductible on warranty-covered visits, repairs with genuine OEM Volvo parts, and 24/7/365 roadside assistance coverage.
CPO means certified pre-owned. With the Certified by Volvo CPO program, the car or SUV has under 80,000 miles logged, a clean title verified by a CARFAX® Vehicle History Report™, and has passed through a demanding manufacturer-guided 170-point inspection. Plus, it means you'll get the confidence of a five-year1 factory-backed exclusionary warranty with unlimited miles.
Certified by Volvo vehicles include zero deductible on warranty-covered visits but typically do not include maintenance coverage. However, the certification process involves our technicians performing necessary repairs and services to the vehicle, which in some cases can extend the distance to your next maintenance service.
