Used Vehicle FAQs

01

How Does Inflation Affect Auto Loan Interest Rates?

When inflation is on the rise, the government typically tries to curb consumer demand by increasing interest rates, resulting in higher borrowing costs. The good news is that if you've already been approved for and initiated an auto loan, you likely won't be affected by any further interest rate hikes. Most new and used car loans establish a fixed interest rate that doesn't fluctuate with the market, ensuring you'll pay the same interest rate for the duration of the loan. If you're currently looking to secure an auto loan, our VW finance team will do their best to secure for you the most competitive interest rates you may qualify for. We'll also share our latest used VW specials so you can save even more money on your purchase.

What's the Best Used Car for Families?

The answer is dependent on your lifestyle. Large families that travel often won't want to settle for anything less than a spacious model like a used VW Atlas. If you find that your household doesn't need third-row seating, consider a pre-owned Volkswagen Tiguan or Atlas Cross Sport. Ready to upgrade to a zero-emissions family hauler? Consider a Certified Pre-Owned ID.4 electric SUV. We think that you'll be able to find the perfect car once you visit our showroom and take a VW test-drive. Whether you fall in love with a used Passat or Atlas, our team is here to help you make the right choice for your needs.

How Many Miles is Good for a Used Car?

The general rule of thumb is that the lower miles, the better. Of course, you won't want to rely on the odometer alone for determining if a certain used car is worth considering. Because highway miles often result in less wear and tear on the drivetrain, you'll find that the used car market is also brimming with older, higher-mileage vehicles that are in excellent condition for their age. Oftentimes, these models can be had a highly competitive price point as well, making them excellent options for those shopping for used cars for sale under $15,000 in Florida.
