SANTA MONICA, Calif., Oct. 21, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- TrueCar, Inc. (NASDAQ: TRUE), the most efficient and transparent online destination to find a car, shares its list of best cash, lease and finance deals on new cars for October 2021.

"While the broader industry is seeing the lowest inventory levels in years, the underlying issue of the microchip shortage is impacting the various automakers in different ways and at different times," said Nick Woolard, Lead Industry Analyst at TrueCar. "In terms of deals, that means that while overall incentive spending has basically been cut in half, there are still models that buck the trend to show strong savings potential. As we enter Q4 many automakers are looking to recoup lost production and sales volume and the potential for savings remains," added Woolard.

TrueCar's list of best cash, lease and finance deals can help consumers cut through the noise and identify some of the best opportunities for savings in the market right now.
