What Is CarBravo?
CarBravo is General Motors’ certified used-vehicle program and online shopping platform. It is designed to help drivers shop for quality used vehicles with more transparency, more confidence, and more support from participating GM dealerships.
Unlike traditional certified pre-owned programs that mostly focus on late-model vehicles from one brand, CarBravo can include eligible GM and non-GM used vehicles. That means shoppers can find certified used Chevrolet models along with other popular makes and body styles, including used SUVs, trucks, cars, vans, and EVs.
Starting June 2, 2026, CarBravo becomes GM’s sole used-vehicle certification program for U.S. Chevrolet, Buick, and GMC dealers. For shoppers, that means CarBravo will play a bigger role in how certified used vehicles are offered through participating GM dealerships.
