A few times a year, the calendar hands car buyers a major advantage. Labor Day is one of the few times when the numbers actually lean your way. Expect nothing less than 0% APRs, cash on the hood, and ridiculously cheap leases. CarEdge’s Ray Shefska has been in this business long enough to know not every “deal” is a deal, so we asked him to share the 10 best offers that actually save you money this Labor Day. Here are the best of the best in August and early September.

2025 Ford F-150 STX

Lease from $499/mo for 36 months with just $499 due at signing

Ford doesn’t usually let you drive off in an F-150 with this little down. For a pickup this size, it’s a surprisingly cheap way to get in. However, there’s plenty of competition from Ram and Toyota this month as you’ll see below. See Ford offer details.

2025 Ford Explorer Active 4WD

Lease from $499/mo for 36 months with $499 due at signing

Ford’s Labor Day lease sale is truly something special. If you’re considering any Ford model in the months ahead, it’s probably worth it to consider acting sooner to lock in lease savings. See Ford offer details.

2025 Ram 1500

1.9% APR for 72 months

The Ram 1500 is one of the ‘big three’ trucks, but that doesn’t mean it’s a fast-seller. But with 77 days of market supply, incentives seem to be doing their job. This is the best sales rate for the Ram 1500 in recent memory.

In select markets, Ram is also offering the option of 15% off MSRP plus 3.9% APR for 72 months. See Ram offer details.

2025 Toyota Tundra

1.99% APR for 72 months in select markets

The Tundra is a full-size truck that’s just as capable as the competition from Ford and GM. With six years of low-APR financing, this is a deal worth the test drive. See Toyota offer details.

2025 Chevrolet Equinox EV

0% APR for 60 months (tax credit expires September 30)

Chevy’s Equinox EV is the best-selling non-Tesla EV, with sales nearing the 10,000 mark in the month of July. Buyers see the Equinox EV as a standout value with pricing well under $40,000 and zero percent financing, and that’s before the tax credit is taken into consideration. Speaking of the federal EV tax credit, buyers have until the end of September to take advantage of the incentive. See Chevrolet offer details.

2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe

2025 Honda Prologue

0% APR for 60 months, or lease for $159/mo for 36 months with $2,599 due

I think it’s safe to say that Honda has been surprised by the instant hit they’ve had with the Honda Prologue. Inventory is selling quickly as buyers rush to get ahead of the September tax credit deadline. See Honda offer details.

2025 Hyundai Palisade

0% APR for 60 months + up to $1,500 cash + 90-day payment deferral

The Palisade has always been a hot seller for Hyundai. That’s why it’s a big deal that zero percent financing is offered for Labor Day 2025. This is an excellent choice for families needing a 3-row SUV. See Hyundai offer details.

2025 Mazda CX-90 PHEV

$10,000 lease cash, for a lease offer from $285/mo for 24 months with $3,999 due

Lease cash this high is virtually unheard of in today’s market. A three-row plug-in hybrid for under $300/month? That’s almost too good to be true. The flexibility of the PHEV powertrain means that you can drive electric in the city with a gas-powered hybrid for the highways. See Mazda offer details.

2025 Toyota RAV4 PHEV

$6,500 lease cash in select markets

Toyota is the fastest-selling automaker in America in 2025, with everything from the RAV4 to the bZ4X flying off dealer lots. That’s precisely why this deal is special. Toyota has little incentive to cut prices, so take advantage of this Labor Day while it lasts.
