TORRANCE, Calif., Dec. 21, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Starting this week, Acura is offering non-certified used Acura vehicles on AcuraCertified.com, aligned with the brand’s effort to create a more comprehensive and streamlined method for customers to shop and purchase Acura pre-owned vehicles. Acura’s latest initiative is an expansion of Acura Precision Certified, the brand’s award-winning Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) Vehicle Program, enhancing the brand’s sales portal by incorporating non-certified used Acura vehicles.

The addition of used vehicles to AcuraCertified.com is the latest step in Acura’s comprehensive approach to attract young and first-time buyers to the premium brand. Acura’s award-winning CPO program has experienced tremendous success over the past several years and is currently on pace for a fourth straight year of sales growth. Acura is one of a few luxury brands in positive CPO sales territory this year, and with an all-time record month in August, Acura CPO vehicles have the potential to set a new annual sales mark in 2020.

The enhanced Acura Certified website enables customers to shop dealer inventories of Acura used vehicles that include up to 10 previous model years. Used and CPO vehicles are becoming an important gateway to vehicle ownership for young and first-time buyers, stemming from the ever-increasing new-vehicle transaction prices, making Acura’s effort to offer used vehicles on its website an important opportunity to attract new buyers.

Acura’s pre-owned vehicle initiative will continue to add enhancements in the near future, including aligning with Acura’s Precision Purchase online buying tool. This will take the process of purchasing a used Acura vehicle to the next level by enabling customers to complete most of the purchase process online.

TORRANCE, California, 21 de diciembre de 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — A partir de esta semana, Acura ofrece vehículos usados no certificados Acura en AcuraCertified.com, en línea con los esfuerzos de la marca por crear un método más completo y fluido para que los clientes encuentren y compren vehículos usados Acura. La más reciente iniciativa de Acura es una ampliación del programa galardonado de vehículos usados certificados (CPO) «Acura Precision Certified», que actualiza el portal de ventas de la marca mediante la incorporación de vehículos usados no certificados Acura.

La adición de vehículos usados a AcuraCertified.com es el paso más reciente en el enfoque integral de Acura para atraer compradores jóvenes y a los que ingresan por primera vez a la marca de gama alta. El programa galardonado de vehículos usados certificados ha tenido mucho éxito en los últimos años y actualmente está en su cuarto año seguido de crecimiento en las ventas. Acura es una de las pocas marcas de lujo cuyas ventas de vehículos usados certificados están en territorio positivo este año y después de haber tenido en agosto pasado el récord mensual de ventas de todos los tiempos, los vehículos usados certificados de Acura tienen el potencial de establecer una nueva marca en ventas anuales para 2020.

El sitio web actualizado Acura Certified permite a los clientes hacer compras de los inventarios de los concesionarios de vehículos usados Acura que incluyen modelos de hasta 10 años anteriores. Los vehículos usados, tanto certificados como no certificados, se están convirtiendo en una puerta de entrada importante para que los compradores jóvenes y los que lo hacen por primera vez adquieran un vehículo, como consecuencia de los precios cada vez más altos de las transacciones de vehículos nuevos, lo que hace del esfuerzo de Acura por ofrecer vehículos usados en su sitio web una oportunidad importante para atraer nuevos compradores.

La iniciativa de vehículos usados de Acura continuará añadiendo mejoras en el corto plazo, entre ellas el alineamiento con la herramienta de compras en línea «Precision Purchase» de Acura. Esto llevará el proceso de compra de un vehículo Acura al siguiente nivel, al permitirles a los clientes completar la mayor parte del proceso de compra en línea.

CARLSBAD, Calif., Dec. 21, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — BayWa r.e. has completed construction and achieved financial close of the Amadeus Wind project in Texas. Located northwest of Abilene in Rotan, the 250 MW wind farm has begun selling power into the grid and will generate enough clean, renewable energy to meet the electricity needs of more than 74,800 homes annually. Amadeus is the largest onshore wind project completed to date in BayWa r.e.’s global portfolio.

Amadeus consists of 96 GE wind turbines deployed across nearly 25,000 acres of federal, state and privately held lands. Over the lifetime of the plant, it will provide millions of dollars in tax benefits to the local community. The wind farm will also reduce the need for power generated from fossil fuels and will keep over 648,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide greenhouse gases from being released into the atmosphere each year. 

«We are grateful to all the stakeholders that worked hard to make this project a success, despite this year’s profound global challenges,» said Florian Zerhusen, CEO of BayWa r.e. Wind LLC.

Amadeus brought together some of the leading names in project financing, tax equity and asset ownership. Commerzbank, one of Germany’s largest financial institutions, financed the construction loan for the project. Morgan Stanley is purchasing the energy from the plant under the terms of a 10-year hedge agreement. The tax equity funding was provided by BHE Renewables while Fengate has taken a cash equity position and will jointly own the wind farm with BayWa r.e., which will continue to manage the asset.

«Fengate is very pleased to invest in Amadeus, and we look forward to our ongoing collaboration with BayWa r.e., a proven operating partner and industry leader,» said Greg Calhoun, Managing Director, Infrastructure Investments, Fengate. «This significant and strategically located wind project provides a new and important source of clean energy.»

«We are well underway with construction on our next project in California,» added Zerhusen. «Combined with a very well-developed pipeline, this allows us to continue delivering strong value for our investors and stakeholders moving forward.»

Despite the challenges presented by the COVID-19 pandemic, U.S. wind installations are on pace for a record year, according to the latest market data from the American Wind Energy Association (AWEA). Annual installations were up 72% year-over-year through the end of the third quarter. AWEA cites strong market fundamentals and consumer demand as the main drivers of U.S. wind development, with wind offering the most affordable source of new electricity generation in many parts of the country.
