The Biggest Cash Back Deals
With gas prices still low, the biggest cash-back deals this month are on hybrids, plug-in hybrids, and full electric vehicles, according to Forbes. These vehicles are hard to sell (with the exception of Tesla), so manufacturers are offering up to $11,000 in incentives!
For gas-powered vehicles, the biggest cash back deals are on slow-moving sedans like the Ford Taurus, Kia Cadenza, Hyundai Azera, and Volvo S80 sedans.
The biggest cash-back deals are actually on leases. See below for full summary.
If you're shopping for a new car, I recommend you use TrueCar No Haggle and CarsDirect to quickly see what deals are being offered in your local area.
