When you need a new car, you’ll likely wonder how to get a great deal. Although it may seem inconsequential, shopping at the right time of year can help you to score a great deal on the model you want, especially if it’s new. Here are a few reasons fall should be your go-to time to start hunting for the perfect new ride. 

Why Is Fall Ideal for Car Shopping? 

Every autumn, car manufacturers announce the latest models of their vehicles for the following year. Since car dealerships need to make room for the new cars they’ll be receiving, you can get better deals on brand-new cars that were debuted at the start of the current calendar year.

For example, since the new 2020 models will be hitting showroom floors in December or January, you may be able to get an excellent price for a new 2019 model that’s only been test-driven a few times. 

You can get even better deals on brand-new cars during the fall if the manufacturer is about to release an updated model style for the vehicle you’re considering. Car makes are generally redesigned or updated every four to six years. Talk with your car dealer about whether or not the car you’re considering is due for an update, and if it is, you may get a steal on the model that’s been sitting on the sales floor for a few months. 

What Else Can You Do to Save Money? 

It may also be wise to visit car dealerships early in the week when there’s typically less foot traffic. Since there are fewer customers, dealers have more time to work with you on the price. Additionally, since there’s less competition for available inventory, you can have your pick of colors and package styles before the busy weekend.
