Best New-Car Deals for July 4th
These prices on CR Recommended cars, SUVs, and trucks are worthy of fireworks
Car dealerships are celebrating Independence Day with discounted prices on select new cars leading up to the holiday weekend and in some cases, beyond. There are some true fireworks with the prices this year, revealing significant savings on a wide range of car types from 8 percent to 16 percent off MSRP—if you know where to look.
To find the best car deals for July Fourth, Consumer Reports’ analysts studied national incentives for models worth consideration. We concentrated on those with a strong Overall Score, factoring in road-test performance, owner satisfaction, reliability, and safety to make sure that the featured cars, SUVs, and trucks represent smart buys.

All models featured below have nationwide incentives that are good until at least July 1, 2024, with several extending to July 8, 2024. We filtered out models expected to sell for over $50,000, even with the available discounts. That means each is available for less than the average price of a new car today.
