Best New-Car Deals for Memorial Day Weekend and Beyond

The dozen deals highlighted here from Audi, Ford, Hyundai, Lexus, Lincoln, Mazda, Nissan, and Volkswagen are available until May 31, with some incentives valid through July. Each model has rebates, is available for under $50,000, and has the potential to save 9 percent or more off the sticker price with negotiation.

You’re likely to see ads for other models, but their deals may not be as attractive, or they may have come up short in Consumer Reports’ testing. It’s important that shoppers do their research and not be swayed solely by the savings.

The cars listed below—all 2026 models—appear in descending order of the potential savings off the manufacturer’s suggested retail price. To show specific pricing examples, we spotlighted popular versions.

The potential savings span from 9 percent to 19 percent off the original MSRP—and this often holds true across the model range. There may be regional deals that outshine these national offerings, and variations in supply and demand can mean prices vary in your area. Local pricing can be found through our Build & Buy Car Buying Service. On our car model pages, under the Pricing tab, you will find the latest average transaction prices for your area. Generally, securing a price between the bottom line and the average transaction is considered a win and a good deal.

Specific pricing on these versions and other trim variations is available on our model pages, along with complete road tests, reliability, owner satisfaction, safety verdict, and other key information.
