Transaction prices have reached record highs and a J.D. Power study found that the average incentive across the market dropped to just 4.3% in August.
Used car prices are also through the roof, but that means savvy shoppers with a trade-in are in a good position to make out if they can score a rare deal on a new vehicle.
Edmunds has scoured the market for models with relatively large inventories and discounts to help and has found a few to look out for if you’re not too picky:
