Incentives

We did the work; now you can take a look at the best new-car deals with cash and finance offers this Memorial Day weekend.

One alternative to buying an electric vehicle is to lease one, and some automakers are offering special deals on EV leases that mirror the federal tax credit.

Now through July 5, customers are eligible for a $7,500 lease bonus on the 2023 EV6.

Shoppers placing their bets on a new-car purchase for May will find a superfecta of deals on everything from a muscle car to a pair of SUVs and a pickup truck. See the full list here.

Shoppers looking for the best deal on an SUV or pickup this month should consider one of the four best options we found, most of which come with above-average incentives.

The tool uses EV Life’s Incentives Engine to show customers more than 470 potential rebates, EV tax credits and other benefits, such as toll discounts and HOV carpool decals.

Many more EVs and plug-in hybrids are eligible for the federal tax subsidy of up to $7,500 — including vehicles built outside North America — as long as drivers lease them or buy used rather than buy new.

If you’re in the market for an SUV or pickup truck, there are some savings to be found. Here are the best deals we came across for July.

We found a trio of SUVs and a pickup truck that defy the trends this month with thousands of dollars in cash savings or special financing rates for qualified shoppers.

Despite the overall trend of shrinking incentives, there are a handful of vehicles that still offer generous deals for May. Here’s what we found.
