            What is the Trade Up Advantage?       

       

            The Subaru Trade Up Advantage Program is an exclusive owner loyalty framework designed to help drivers transition into newer models sooner than expected. Its absolute foundation is the Guaranteed Trade-In Program (GTP).        

       

            Through the GTP, Subaru of America guarantees the exact baseline trade-in value of your qualifying Subaru vehicle. This program operates as a direct financial safety net, removing third-party appraisal variables and giving you a fixed value index updated monthly.       

       
           
               
🛡️
               

A True Guarantee

               

                    Your baseline value is fully guaranteed for up to 8 years from your vehicle's initial registration date.

Market Adjusted

               

                    Valuations are updated on the 1st of every month to reflect regional auction, seasonal, and market trends.

"Better-Of-Two" Rule

               

                    If market demand drives local values higher than the GTP base value, you receive the higher appraisal.               

           
       
   
   
       

            The Core Benefits (Why You Should Use It)       

       

            The primary reason to utilize this program is value protection. Because Subaru vehicles hold their value far better than the industry average, you build equity faster. The Trade Up Advantage maps this equity plateau so you can upgrade with little to no money down.

            💰 The Cook County Tax Savings Advantage       

       

            When you trade in your vehicle at Evergreen Subaru, the state of Illinois allows you to deduct your total trade value directly from the taxable purchase price of your new vehicle. In suburban Cook County, our combined vehicle sales tax rate is 8.25% (made up of the base 6.25% Illinois state tax plus county/local transport additions). A trade value of $20,000 immediately yields an extra $1,650 in pure tax savings that stays in your pocket! If you sell your car outright to an online third party, you lose this credit entirely.
