Why Choose a Used Toyota SUV?

The most influential factor in buying a used Toyota, as opposed to a new one, is the attractively lower price tag. Initially, you will save a great deal of money on the preowned vehicle’s lower purchase price, but you will also save a lot more money on recurring expenses (insurance and excise tax) throughout the vehicle’s lifetime. In fact, secondhand vehicles can save you hundreds to thousands of dollars every year in insurance premium payments alone. Another advantage of choosing pre-owned is that you can get a better-equipped SUV for less money by buying a higher trim level, with some great comfort and technology features, for the same price or even less than a brand-new base trim of that same model.

Resale Value

Due to Toyota’s stellar reputation for reliability, their pre-owned vehicles consistently hold their value better than any competing manufacturer’s vehicles. Toyota was recently voted the “Best Brand” by Kelley Blue Book (KBB) for the third consecutive year, and on KBB’s list of the top ten vehicles with the best resale value, three were Toyota products. The Highlander topped its segment for best resale value, and the RAV4, a crossover that’s sometimes grouped with SUVs, also placed highly on the list. With accolades like these, it’s no wonder that so many people buy pre-owned Toyotas every year.
