CHICAGO, Dec. 22, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Cars.com (NYSE: CARS), a leading digital automotive marketplace and solutions provider, today announced the top end-of-year car deals. As Americans continue to prioritize car ownership as a safe mode of transportation during the COVID-19 pandemic, motivated buyers can find end-of-year deals with up to 19% off select new vehicles. Recent data reveals 85% of Cars.com shoppers plan to purchase a car in the next six months, with 51% planning to buy in the next month.1

According to Cars.com, shoppers throughout the pandemic are consistently moving up car-purchasing timelines due to COVID-19 concerns, with more than 20% of shoppers buying sooner than planned. The holidays are historically one of the best times to buy a car, and this year, shoppers can expect strong discounts and incentives from automakers.

"For the many car shoppers looking to buy in the coming weeks, affordability has never been more important," said Kelsey Mays, Cars.com assistant managing editor.

"When it comes to car shopping, we always recommend consumers do their research on Cars.com to see available pricing on several examples of the car they are buying and then negotiate for the fairest price possible," Mays added. "Shoppers should pay attention to the final, out-the-door price of the car, not just the monthly payment, to ensure they are getting the best deal in the long run."

For used-car shoppers, Mays encourages consumers to visit the Cars.com Used-Car Buyer's Checklist. Cars.com's virtual test drives can be found on its YouTube channel.
