U.S. News & World Report, the global authority in rankings and consumer advice, today unveiled the Best Labor Day Car Deals for 2021. The list features nine vehicles, including four SUVs, two compact cars, a large car, a midsize car and a luxury sports car. These models are all available with excellent financing, cash back or lease incentives.

“The current inventory shortages make Labor Day a difficult time to find a great deal, particularly if you’re shopping for a popular truck or family-friendly SUV,” said Jim Sharifi, managing editor of U.S. News Best Cars. “The flip side is that there are attractive lease and finance offers on a number of top-ranked cars and small SUVs, so the three-day weekend is an excellent shopping opportunity for some buyers.”
