Labor Day isn’t just a great way to celebrate the nation’s working class; it’s also a great time to buy or lease a car. Here are six of our favorites.
With all the uncertainty around new car buying, tariffs, and whether or not the end of the federal tax credit on EVs will impact pricing or not, it’s tough to know where to start when buying or leasing a car. Labor Day, thankfully, is a great time to do some browsing, as many dealerships are eager to move models off the lot to make room for new models.
If you Google “Best Labor Day deals,” you’ll get a handful of results. To make it easier, and more thoughtful, we’ve combed through them all and picked the best cars with the greatest deals for Labor Day, so you won’t have to. From EVs, hybrids, SUVs, and beyond, we were careful with what we picked.
Note: Since every car dealer is different and deals can vary by geographic region, be sure to contact your local dealership to confirm they’re participating beforehand. All deals end September 2, 2025.

If you’re looking for a Subaru Solterra, an EV we’ve adored since the beginning, Subaru is offering a great finance AND lease deal for the outgoing 2025 model. When buying, you get 0% APR for 72 months or a $299 per month payment deal if you lease it. The crazy part is, you only need $299 due at signing, and it qualifies for the $7,500 federal lease credit.
If you’re in love with the 2024 model, you can lease it for $249 per month with only $249 due at signing. Financing the 2024 would be the same–0% APR for 72 months.
Same story as the Subaru: to make room for the all-new 2026 Palisade, which we drove and adored, many dealerships are offering killer deals on the outgoing 2025 model. So, if you were a bigger fan of the outgoing model’s design, Hyundai is offering a finance deal of 0% APR for 60 months, as well as a “no payments for 90 days” option. If you prefer the Calligraphy Night edition, many dealerships are offering $1,750 cash back, too.
Hyundai is also offering a great finance deal for the 2025 Ioniq 5 at 0% APR for 36 months, too, if you’re looking for a great EV.
You’re probably noticing a pattern by now. Kia recently updated the Sportage with a new design and improved hybrid model for 2026, and we loved it. So, to make room on the lots for them, many dealerships are participating in Kia’s Labor Day event, where you can finance the gas-powered version of the Sport at 0% APR for 48 months.
If you’re looking for an EV, Kia is offering a $5,000 cash back deal for the 2025 EV6 Light Long Range RWD, or a lease deal of $239 per month for 24 months with $3,999 due at signing.
The Tiguan is one of our favorites, and has also been under the knife for stylistic changes. If you were looking at a 2025 Tiguan, VW’s Labor Day deal is a $750 bonus and a 3.9% APR for 60 months. Dealers are also looking to part ways with the 2025 Atlas, with a 2.9% APR for 60 months on all 2025 models.
If you’re looking to lease an ID.4, many dealers are offering a lease deal of $129 per month when you put $2,499 down at signing, too.
If you’re on the market for a strong, reliable truck, Chevy is offering a tempting finance deal for the outgoing 2025 model. But Chevy is careful to note that it’s only offered to buyers with strong credit. If you do have good credit, you can finance a 2025 Silverador 1500 with 0% APR for 36 months plus $1,000 cash back in a wide range of trim levels, engine choices, and cab or bed configurations.
Mazda’s set to have a great 2026 with refreshed models and new hybrid tech. We’re most excited for the new CX-5, so we’re not shocked to see a finance deal for the 2025 CX-5. You can defer payments up to 90 days if you finance an outgoing CX-5, plus a $1,000 discount if you’re a current Mazda owner looking to upgrade. The CX-50 also has a few deals, like 1.9% APR for 60 months, as well as a 90-month break from payments.
If you’re looking at the CX-50 hybrid, there’s a Labor Day deal for that too, with a 1.9% APR for 60 months for certain trim levels. For leasing, there’s a great lease deal for the CX-30, at $275 per month with $3,999 due at signing.
Ford is trying to move 2025 F-150 models–and quickly–by offering an almost unbelievable finance deal. In several trim levels and configurations, you can finance a 2025 F-150 at 0% APR indefinitely without a down payment, you can defer payments for up to 90 days, and it comes with a free 24-month maintenance plan.
The deal is also set to move even older models, as it applies to 2024 model Explorers, Escapes, Expeditions, and Broncos.
We love the Toyota Corolla, as it’s a great option as a first car for a teen or college student. It’s safe, reliable, affordable, and remarkably efficient. Toyota’s Labor Day deal comes in the form of a lease deal for the 2025 LE model, at $229 per month for 36 months with $2,999 due at signing, or $189 per month with $3,999 due at signing.
