SANTA MONICA, Calif. -

This evening, another round of the College Football Playoff rankings will be released, with teams (OK, arguments aside) ordered based on how they stack up against the rest.

Much like college football on the sports landscape, certified pre-owned is crazy popular in automotive. But how would they stack up in a top 10 ranking? 

Edmunds.com tackled that question last week in an article by new- and used-car editor James Riswick.

His story ranks the programs based on how they “provide CPO benefits that exceed the industry norm.”

According to the Edmunds post, written by Riswick, here’s how the programs line up:

1) Hyundai
2) Kia
3) Lexus
4) Volvo
5) Honda and Mazda (tie)
6) Porsche
7) Jaguar and Land Rover (tie)
8) Buick

So why did Edmunds pick these 10? Find out why in Riswick’s full story.
