Edmunds: Save a bundle on these 2024 vehicles for end-of-the-year savings
The end of the year is often the best time to buy a car
The holidays are coming and so are the car deals. As the year draws to a close, many manufacturers will have end-of-year or holiday sales designed to bring shoppers into showrooms and move metal. In addition to checking out these promoted sales, it can also be helpful to know which outgoing model-year vehicles automakers and dealers are selling at a significantly discounted price.
Edmunds collects data on tens of thousands of vehicle transactions every year. And analyzing those data gives insight into where the best deals may be, especially as a calendar year ends. Accordingly, Edmunds editors reviewed sales data from most manufacturers from September of this year to find the deepest discounts. The following five vehicles stood out as viable options for shoppers looking to get a deal.
