The end of the year is filled with sales and discounts. Once Black Friday arrives in November, the holiday shopping season really begins. But there’s one thing many people don’t think to shop for as the year comes to a close: a new car.
Just like clothes, toys, and electronics, cars also see deep discounts and big sales in the months of November and December. And as the end of the year arrives in December, those discounts can get even better. Whether you’re shopping for a small passenger car or a big SUV, you’ll find brand-new models at surprisingly low prices.
Galina_Lya / ShutterstockWhy does this happen? Auto dealerships need to sell cars before the new year begins. As Forbes¹ explains, there’s nothing dealers hate more than being stuck with last year’s models. So to sell off the remaining 2019 models, dealerships will be lowering prices, offering incentives, and trying to make sales.
The following are just a few of the great year-end clearance deals you’ll find on new cars right now.
2019 Jeep Compass
Buy a new 2019 Jeep Compass and you’ll get up to $4,494 off the total price². This offer includes a holiday discount, up to $1,500 in Bonus Cash, up to $750 in Chrysler Capital Bonus Cash, and more.
If you purchase a 2019 Compass Limited FWD model, you can get as much as $3,250 back³. Purchase a 2019 Compass Latitude FWD, and you can get the maximum discount.
2019 Chevrolet Silverado 2500
During December, Chevrolet dealerships everywhere offer the Chevrolet Employee Discount for Everyone sale. You’ll find low prices on plenty of 2019 Chevy vehicles, with discounts taken right off the MSRP.
However, you’ll also find bonus cash offers and discounted trim or package options. And the 2019 Chevrolet Silverado includes two of those.
