ATLANTA -

Qualified buyers seeking to finance a certified pre-owned Nissan Leaf or Nissan Altima can get the following deal: Through the end of April, Nissan is offering 3.99% interest for up to 60 months on any certified pre-owned version of the vehicles.

That is just one of several offers that Autotrader is describing as a top certified pre-owned deal for April. Autotrader editors have listed what they say are some of the best certified pre-owned deals to help shoppers find the right vehicle this month.

Autotrader says that April typically starts one of the strongest selling months of the season as tax refunds result in fuller wallets for many car shoppers. Tax season often means more Americans are ready to use their refunds toward a vehicle purchase. Autotrader notes that consumers looking to get the “most bang for their buck” should consider a certified pre-owned vehicle.

“After completing the tedious task of yearly taxes, consumers are often rewarded with a refund they can apply toward a major purchase, like the down payment on their next vehicle,” Brian Moody, executive editor of Autotrader, said in a news release. “The refund can be stretched even further by considering a CPO vehicle, allowing shoppers to drive away with a car that is as good as new, but at a better price.”

Following are more of what Autotrader describes as the best certified pre-owned deals for April:

Acura is offering an extra year of comprehensive coverage and powertrain coverage for up to seven years or 100,000 miles from the original sale date for its certified pre-owned program. Also to qualified shoppers, the automaker is also offering 1.99% for up to 60 months on certified pre-owned RDX models through the end of April. Autotrader calls that “a desirable long term for a used vehicle.”

Autotrader also believes the one additional year of comprehensive warranty coverage with no mileage limit for BMW’s certified pre-owned program is a strong deal. Buyers can extend that coverage to additional years for an extra fee, according to Autotrader. But that’s not all. To further attract qualified drivers for April, for all certified pre-owned 2015-2017 BMW models, the automaker is offering 1.99% interest for 24 months. And the offer is even better for certain certified pre-owed models. For 2015-2017 BMW 3 and 4 Series models, the offer is 1.99% interest for up to 48 months, or 2.99%  for up to 60 months.

The certified pre-owned program from Buick also gained Autotrader’s attention. The automaker is offering an additional year or 12,000 miles of comprehensive coverage, along with six years or 100,000 miles of powertrain coverage from the original sale date.

For April, certified pre-owned versions of the Buick Enclave and Encore crossovers come with another strong deal, according to Autotrader: Qualified shoppers can get 0.9% interest for up to 36 months on certified pre-owned Enclave and Encore models through the end of the month.

As for Cadillac, Autotrader describes that automaker’s certified pre-owned program as “among the best in the car industry.” It includes an offer of six years or 100,000 miles of comprehensive coverage from the original sale date, and Cadillac is offering an extra “desirable deal” for the ATS, Escalade, and SRX models in April, according to Autotrader: Qualified buyers can get 2.9% interest for up to 36 months on certified pre-owned versions of all three of those models through the end of the month.

Ford's certified pre-owned program is already strong, with two warranties, according to Autotrader. One of the warranties provides coverage for an additional year or 12,000 miles beyond the factory warranty. The other features powertrain coverage for up to seven years or 100,000 miles. For April, however, Ford’s certified pre-owned program is even more enticing than usual, according to Autotrader. The automaker is offering “an appealing interest rate” of 4.49% for up to 60 months for qualified buyers wanting a certified pre-owned vehicle. Autotrader says that is “a good deal over a longer term, especially for a used vehicle.”

And if all those deals weren’t enough, Autotrader describes Land Rover's certified pre-owned program as “among the very best.” That program provides “excellent peace of mind” by including seven years or 100,000 miles of comprehensive coverage from the original sale date, according to Autotrader. April buyers can combine the two and also get 0.9% interest on certified pre-owned Discovery Sport models for up to 24 months. For most Discovery Sport models, buyers can get 1.9% interest for up to 36 months. Autotrader describes both of those as “excellent deals for qualified shoppers.”

And back to Nissan, in addition to the Leaf and Altima deals mentioned earlier, the automaker is adding additional coverage to the brand’s powertrain warranty. That coverage is for up to seven years or 100,000 miles of coverage from the original sale date.
