New Car Rebates and Incentives - December 2010 New Car Deals

The month of December brings a fresh round of new car rebates and incentives to auto dealerships across the country. As the New Year approaches, better deals and bargains can be found on 2011 models as well as leftover 2010 vehicles as inventories start to mix more freely on dealer lots.

Our list this week starts out with the full-size 2011 BMW 7 Series luxury sedan, which can be had with the choice of either $2,500 cash back or low 0.9 percent financing. Next up is the 2010 Buick Lucerne full-size sedan, which presents a more affordable take on the large premium car concept in addition to its available $4,000 cash rebate or 2.9% purchase financing. The 2010 Chevrolet Aveo subcompact adds to its affordable pricing through either a $2,500 cash back rebate or zero percent financing offer, while the 2011 Ford Flex full-size crossover offers zero percent financing plus a $1,500 cash back rebate or the availability of $2,500 in total cash back. Rounding out the list is the 2010 Kia Forte Koup, a compact two-door that features $1,000 in factory cash rebates or 0.0 percent financing.

As the holidays approach the vehicle market will heat up just before it goes into its short winter hibernation in the months of January and February. These deals represent some of the best offers currently available on the new car market.
