How to Take a Used Car Test Drive

When test driving used Hyundai cars, there are a few things you can do to make the process easier on yourself. At Sansone Hyundai, we are all about encouraging good habits and making sure our customers leave our lot with a car that they are going to love for many years to come.

Take Your Time

As with all test driving – for new and for pre-owned cars – you’ll want to clear your schedule so you can take as much time as you need at the dealership checking everything out. 

Feel and Listen

While the make, model, color, and mileage might all be visible in a pre-owned car, what is not so obvious is the condition. This is going to vary depending on age and how well it was maintained, so you’ll want to see how it feels on the road like if it’s bumpy or smooth, loud or quiet, etc. Taking a peek under the hood is a smart idea too. 

Compare and Contrast

According to Edmund’s, one strategy is to set a benchmark. This means even if you already have a favorite, it’s smart to test drive another model first so you know what to look for and how to go about test driving before you get to that number one pick. That way, you have something to compare your experience to.

We will gladly show you our certified pre-owned Hyundai inventory, too, if that’s something you are interested in. CPO cars are great if you need a little extra peace of mind that comes with a higher quality car covered under warranty. It’s all about what works best for you. Come see us in Avenel to get started today.
