If you’re in the market for a new car or truck, the week between Christmas and New Year’s is one of the best times of the year for new auto sales. 2025 is no exception. Your local Honda, Toyota, Chevy, Buick/Cadillac/GMC, Suzuki, Ford/Lincoln, Hyundai, BMW, Volkswagen, Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep, Kia/Hyundai, Infiniti, Nissan, Mazda, Mitsubishi, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Subaru, Lexus, and Volvo dealers will have large inventories. They’re ready to deal on the lot and on their websites. Many independent used car dealers will also be hosting large holiday car, truck, and SUV clearance sales.

In addition to savings of several thousands of dollars on most models, look for offers of free airline tickets and gift cards. 0% financing is once again being offered on some models. Discounts on extended warranties and service/maintenance plans should be available. If you’d rather lease than buy, watch for special manufacturer-backed lease terms and offers.

Because of the “challenging” economy we currently find ourselves in, most of us have kept our cars and trucks longer than we normally do. The average used vehicle is now over 12 years old! The week between Christmas and New Year’swill be a good time to search for a replacement. Auto dealers are rolling out the sales, discounts, and rebate incentives. Shop all holiday car, truck & SUV sale events in your local area to locate the best prices and promotions.
