What is a Courtesy Loaner Vehicle?

A Courtesy Vehicle, also called a loaner, is a dealership‑maintained vehicle used for service guests, test drives, or short‑term demos. These vehicles usually have very low miles, retain significant factory warranty, and often qualify for new-car incentives-which can mean standout savings.

What to Expect

Light cosmetic wear is possible from short-term use. Warranty clock typically starts on the in‑service date. Programs and eligibility can change-your consultant will confirm what applies on a specific vehicle today.

Minor wear may be present from brief service use.
Warranty start date is earlier than purchase date (in‑service date).
Program rules and incentive eligibility change-confirm on a specific VIN.
