SANTA MONICA, Calif., Jan. 21, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- TrueCar, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRUE), the most efficient and transparent online destination to find a car, today announced its list of the best end-of-month deals on new and used vehicle purchases and trade-in values for January 2021.

"New vehicle incentives tend to soften a bit going into a new year, which means it's even more important for car buyers to understand where the deals are," said Nick Woolard, Lead Analyst for TrueCar. "It's often hard to understand whether an advertised offer is a good one, and that's where TrueCar can really help cut through the noise and help consumers compare real price offers with the same money down and terms."

"On the used car front, this is the time of year when we see a lot of used cars being purchased, we're finally seeing used vehicle listing prices go down which is a good sign for consumers looking to buy used and CPO vehicles."

Best Cash, Lease and Finance Deals on New Cars
Navigating the new car incentive landscape is complex for any car buyer. TrueCar looks at deals across popular models, and at each incentive type (cash, lease, finance) and surfaces the best offer when compared with the prior month.  This month we're seeing average savings of close to 7.2% off MSRP across all new models.
