In 2025, some brands are pulling back on promotions due to rising tariffs and economic uncertainty — but several standout SUV deals remain. From zero-percent financing to big-time cash offers, this month’s incentives could save you thousands.
Here are the 5 best Memorial Day SUV deals for May 2025. All offers expire on June 2, 2025, unless otherwise noted.
2024 Jeep Grand Cherokee 4xe
Best Deal: 0% APR for 72 months or employee pricing plus $4,500 bonus cash
If you’re looking for a family-friendly SUV with real off-road chops and plug-in hybrid tech, this is the one to beat. Jeep is offering dual incentive paths this month — but for most buyers, the 0% APR deal will deliver the most value.
Why it’s great:
Rare long-term interest-free financing
Up to $4,500 in bonus cash if you choose employee pricing
The Chevy Tahoe remains one of the most in-demand full-size SUVs, and it’s not often you see 0% financing on a vehicle in this segment. This Memorial Day deal applies to the final batch of 2024 models still on lots.
Why it’s great:
Zero interest = big long-term savings
Ideal for families who need space, towing, and road trip comfort
Need even more room than the Tahoe offers? The Suburban adds cargo space and third-row comfort — now with the same interest-free financing deal. This is one of the best Memorial Day SUV deals we’ve ever seen for this SUV.
Why it’s great:
Full-size SUV with luxury-level ride quality
Massive cargo space without massive interest payments
Great deal for large families or road trip warriors
Okay, it’s technically a minivan, but for many families cross-shopping 3-row SUVs, the Pacifica plug-in hybrid is a smarter pick — and the only PHEV in its class. Chrysler continues to offer stellar interest-free financing while supplies last.
Why it’s great:
Up to 32 miles of electric range
Qualifies for potential federal and state EV incentives
Best Deal: 1.9% APR for 60 months + $1,000 bonus cash
If you’re shopping for luxury SUVs this spring, Infiniti’s QX60 deal is one of the few offers under 2% APR — and it includes bonus cash. With upscale comfort, great tech, and a smooth ride, this midsize luxury SUV is well positioned for value-focused premium shoppers.
Memorial Day SUV Deals Are Heating Up — But Won’t Last Long
From rugged plug-in hybrids to full-size family haulers, these are the top Memorial Day SUV deals of 2025 — but time is running out. With all offers set to expire by June 2, shoppers should move quickly to take advantage of these low finance rates and generous cash incentives.

Looking to score a great deal on a new truck this Memorial Day? May is traditionally one of the best times of year to shop for pickups, and 2025 is no exception. Despite inventory pressure and shifting incentives due to ongoing auto tariffs, several automakers are rolling out offers worth the test drive.
We’ve rounded up the five best Memorial Day truck deals available right now, including 0% financing, big cash allowances, and rare lease promotions. All offers expire on June 2, 2025, unless noted otherwise.
2024 Jeep Gladiator
Best Deal: $10,250 bonus cash or 2.9% APR for 72 months
Jeep is going big to clear out leftover 2024 Gladiators, and this might be the most aggressive truck deal of the year. With over 1,200 units still sitting on lots nationwide, dealers are motivated to move inventory — fast.
Best Deal: 0.9% APR for 60 months + $3,500 total cash allowance
Chevy’s flagship truck gets a competitive low-APR deal paired with thousands in bonus cash. With Silverado inventory holding steady this spring, Chevy is offering solid incentives to keep up momentum heading into the summer.
Best Deal: $269/month for 36 months, $3,999 due at signing (select markets)
Fresh off a full redesign, the new Tacoma is more refined, tech-savvy, and efficient than ever. This lease deal is one of the few affordable midsize truck options this month — if it’s available in your region.
Best Deal: 2.99% APR for 72 months (regional offer)
Toyota rarely offers below-market APRs on its full-size trucks — they don’t have to. But for Memorial Day 2025, some regions are seeing extended 2.99% APR financing on over 20 different Tundra trims. If you’re in the right market, this is a standout offer.
Nissan’s no-nonsense Frontier continues to be one of the best values in the midsize truck segment. With up to $4,500 off the King Cab, this is a strong deal for buyers looking for capability without breaking the bank.
These five Memorial Day truck deals prove that savings are still out there — if you know where to look. Whether you’re after low-interest financing, serious bonus cash, or an affordable lease, Memorial Day 2025 offers something for every truck shopper. Just remember, all offers expire on June 2, and inventory for certain trims is limited.

Each year, May car deals are synonymous with Memorial Day sales. However, 2025 is full of challenges for automakers. With rising tariffs and economic uncertainty, some automakers are pulling back on promotions. Still, there are deals to be had if you know where to look. We’ve rounded up ten standout car deals in May 2025 featuring interest-free financing, cash incentives, and $0-down leases.
All May offers expire on June 2, 2025. Let’s dive in!
2024 Jeep Gladiator
Best Deal: $10,250 bonus cash or 2.9% APR for 72 months
This is one of the biggest cash incentives we’ve seen this year. With 1,255 2024 Gladiators left to sell, Jeep is motivated to clear out last year’s models before spring turns to summer.
Best Deal: 0% APR for 72 months or $7,500 customer cash
The Nissan Ariya is gaining in popularity, with CarEdge Insights showing that demand is rising. As the Ariya sales increase, this 0% APR offer may disappear in June.Nissan’s customer cash offer essentially matches the federal EV tax credit. With that incentive in limbo, it’s a great offer all-around.
Best Deal: 0% APR for 72 months or employee pricing plus $4,500 bonus cash
In May, Jeep continues to offer huge savings on this plug-in hybrid SUV. The Grand Cherokee 4xe is just as comfortable hauling a family as it is venturing off the beaten path. Most buyers would save the most with Jeep’s 0% financing offer.
Best Deal: 0% APR for 60 months, or lease the rear-wheel drive Model 3 for $349/month for 36 months with $0 due at signing before taxes and fees.
EV fans, take note. Tesla has only offered interest-free financing a few times in its history. This is also the first time Tesla has ever offered a zero-down lease deal. For buyers looking to finance a new car in 2025, this could save you thousands of dollars.
Tesla offers are subject to change at any time, so act fast if you’re interested!
This offer isn’t new, but it’s still a standout deal. Chrysler has been offering zero percent financing for the Chrysler PHEV minivan for months on end. According to CarEdge Insights, sales of the Pacifica are finally picking up. We wouldn’t be surprised if this is the final month for this APR incentive.
Best Deal: 0.9% APR for 60 months, plus $3,500 total cash allowance
The Silverado remains a favorite in the full-size truck segment, and this Memorial Day, it’s one of the few trucks offering low-APR financing incentives. Combine that with a generous $3,500 cash allowance, and you’ve got one of the best deals in May for a top-selling 2025 pickup.
GM has a few hundred 2024 Tahoes left to sell, and with an offer like this, they’ll be sold by Memorial Day. Full-size SUVs rarely see interest-free offers. This is a big win for families needing space and capability without a high finance cost.
Zero-percent financing is unheard of for the Chevy Suburban. This is a rare deal to say the least. The Suburban is unmatched in cargo space and passenger comfort, making it ideal for large families or anyone needing serious room. Don’t expect any 2024s to be left by the end of May. Act quickly if you’re serious about this offer!
Rivian has launched a limited-time lease deal on R1T and R1S electric vehicles, offering $0 down on models equipped with dual motors, the Max battery pack, and a performance upgrade. Available through May 31, 2025, this promotion includes a $6,500 credit toward the lease down payment, plus the built-in $7,500 federal EV credit for U.S.-made electric vehicles.
In select markets, Toyota is offering 2.99% APR for 72 months for 22 different trims of the Toyota Tundra. Rarely does Toyota offer such a great financing deal, since they typically don’t have any issues with demand. Each month, Toyota’s offers are more regional than we see from other OEMs. This APR special is available in certain parts of Texas, as well as other regions. See if this incentive applies to your area at Toyota.com.

In May 2025, the used car market is heating up — and fast. Between rising prices, a shortage of low-mileage vehicles, and renewed demand driven by economic uncertainty, it’s officially a seller’s market. But that doesn’t mean buyers are out of luck. Here’s what’s driving the shift, how used car prices are trending, and what shoppers can do to stay ahead of the game this summer.
Why Used Car Prices Are Rising Again
CarEdge’s own Ray Shefska recently checked how much his 2020 MINI Clubman was worth on the used market. Just six weeks after receiving a $16,600 offer, that same car was valued at $19,000 — a 15% increase in value. While Ray’s experience may sound extreme, it perfectly illustrates the broader trends driving up used car prices this spring.
So what’s going on? Several forces are converging this spring to push prices higher:
Used car demand is rising. Auto tariffs and fears of continued inflation have consumers acting fast. Many shoppers are buying now to avoid potentially higher prices later.
Seasonality is back. Warmer weather has always brought car buyers out in droves — and this year is no different. Think of it as the “spring rush” for cars, a trend that skipped only one year in recent memory: 2020.
The chip shortage echo. The pandemic-era production slump from 2021–2022 wiped out about 15 million new vehicles. Four years later, that shortfall is hitting the used market hard. With fewer gently-used cars in circulation, buyers are competing for a smaller pool of desirable inventory.
One result? The average age of a used car for sale is now 6.7 years — a 26% increase from 2020, when the average was just 5.3 years according to Manheim. However, many buyers still prefer a more gently-used vehicle, so younger pre-owned cars are selling for a steep premium in 2025.
After peaking above $28,000 in 2022, average used car prices dipped to just under $25,000. But now, prices are bouncing back.
Cox Automotive reports that the supply of used cars under $15,000 — often the most in-demand by budget-conscious buyers — is at its lowest level since 2021. These affordable vehicles are also selling the fastest.
Wholesale price data from Black Book shows that used car values are up 2.75% over the past two months — but that’s just the average. Zoom in on the most desirable vehicles, and the price increases are even sharper.
Younger Used Cars Are Gaining Value Fastest
Vehicles that are 0 to 2 years old are appreciating much faster than older cars. Buyers have caught on to the sharp depreciation that hits new cars as soon as they leave the lot — and they’re now prioritizing lightly-used vehicles instead.
That’s creating a perfect storm: low supply, high demand, and rapidly climbing prices for newer used cars. Meanwhile, older vehicles — especially those over 6 years old — are either holding steady or even losing value.
The takeaway? The younger the used car, the stronger its market value right now.
If you’re thinking about selling a car that’s less than five years old — especially one with low mileage — now is the time. Dealers and private buyers are paying top dollar for clean, late-model vehicles.
The average used car sells with about 70,000 miles on the odometer. If yours has under 30,000 miles, it’s a standout — and worth a serious premium.
The hottest vehicles on the market are 2021–2024 models with clean histories and relatively low mileage.
It’s Officially a Seller’s Market — But Smart Buyers Can Still Win
Yes, prices are rising. But used car shoppers still have a chance to land a great deal — especially if new car incentives dry up due to tariff pressures or reduced inventory. Here’s how to stay ahead:
✅ Find Aging Inventory
Use CarEdge Car Search to locate used cars that have sat on dealer lots the longest. These units are often the most negotiable.
✅ Know How to Negotiate
Arm yourself with free negotiation cheatsheets and walk into the dealership with confidence. A well-informed buyer is a powerful buyer.
✅ Don’t Skip the Inspection
A pre-purchase inspection can save you thousands down the road. It’s your best defense against buying a lemon.
✅ Be Flexible
Keep your options open. If one deal falls through or a dealer won’t budge on price, move on. Also, don’t get talked into paying for overpriced add-ons or junk fees. Here’s what’s legit, and what’s a ripoff.
✅ Use a Car Buying Expert
Feeling overwhelmed? Let a professional handle the hard part. CarEdge’s Car Buying Service offers expert help — and now features our most affordable option ever.
Final Thoughts
The 2025 used car market is undergoing rapid changes heading into May. Values are rising, inventory is tightening, and shoppers are rushing to lock in deals before prices rise further. Whether you’re selling a low-mileage car for top dollar or hunting for a well-priced used vehicle, the key is to do your homework, whether you’re buying or selling.
Car buyers are eagerly anticipating Memorial Day sales, traditionally a prime time for deep discounts and attractive incentives. However, early indicators suggest that 2025’s deals may fall short of expectations. This year, several headwinds—including ongoing tariff uncertainty, persistently high auto loan rates, and shrinking vehicle inventories—are clouding the outlook for May promotions. These factors are likely to dampen the kind of aggressive incentives shoppers have come to expect from Memorial Day car sales.
Here’s why some auto industry analysts are bracing for a quieter sales weekend in 2025.
Inventory Is Falling As Buyers Get Ahead of Tariffs
According to Cox Automotive, the industry-wide new vehicle supply dropped to just 70 days at the start of April, a 23% decline from March. CarEdge Insights reports that inventory levels remained similarly tight in late April. This spring rush has been fueled in part by buyers trying to get ahead of potential price hikes tied to looming tariff concerns.
As Memorial Day approaches, inventory constraints are particularly pronounced at brands like Lexus, Toyota, Honda, and Subaru. With fewer cars on the lot, these automakers are unlikely to offer standout holiday deals this year.
But there’s still hope for deal hunters—if you know where to look. Several brands are sitting on inventory levels well above the industry average heading into May. These brands have over 90 days of market supply, and are likely to have the best Memorial Day car sales in May 2025:
Ford, Lincoln
Nissan, Infiniti
Stellantis brands (Jeep, Ram, Dodge, Chrysler)
Hyundai
Mazda
Luxury brands like Jaguar and Land Rover
These car brands will have more flexible pricing and stronger incentives as they look to catch up to the competition. Many are also still working through large volumes of unsold 2024 models—more on that below.
Manufacturers are under pressure to clear out 2024 models, four months into the new year. In April 2025, 348,000 of the 3.1 million new cars for sale in America were 2024 models. Many of them are trucks like the Ford F-150 and Ram 2500. There are also plenty of last year’s electric vehicles that remain unsold. These are prime targets for zero percent financing Memorial Day specials.
Here’s a look at cars and trucks with the most remaining 2024 inventory as Memorial Day 2025 approaches:
Make
Model
Unsold 2024s (in April 2025)
Ford
F-150
32,189
Ford
Bronco
18,555
Ram
Ram 2500
10,080
Ford
Expedition
8,699
Acura
ZDX
4,238
Jeep
Grand Cherokee
3,709
Lincoln
Nautilus
2,375
Lincoln
Corsair
2,049
Unsold 2024 models will be the most negotiable cars in May 2025. You should be able to confidently negotiate at least 15% off MSRP for any remaining 2024 model, even those impacted by auto tariffs. Use CarEdge Insights to find aging car inventory in your city.
Low APR Incentives: A Closer Look
Low APR deals are a win-win for both dealers and buyers. For dealers, it’s about liquidating stock without slashing sticker prices dramatically, which can devalue the brand. For buyers, these subsidized rates lower the monthly payment, making an upgrade more feasible. Expect to see APR offers as low as 0% for qualified buyers on select models, alongside generous cash-back offers and lease deals.
In fact, there are already several 0% APR offers on the market today…
As we inch closer to Memorial Day, certain vehicles stand out for their negotiability. While the specific models and deals will be confirmed as the holiday approaches, here are some categories to watch:
Last Year’s Inventory: Memorial Day car sales are the manufacturer’s best chance to clear out the last of 2024’s remaining inventory. Expect crazy deals on these, especially trucks, Jeeps and electric vehicles.
Truck Deals: Automakers have simply priced new trucks too high, and buyers are pushing back. This has led to an oversupply of new trucks on dealer lots. Expect big deals on Ram trucks, and the Ford F-150. In fact, there are already some great low APR offers out there. Check out the truck deals.
Brands with High Inventory: As we outlined above, several popular car and truck brands have more than 90 days of market supply heading into May. Expect Ford, Jeep, Ram, Dodge, Hyundai, and Mazda to have the best deals due to high supply.
