WASHINGTON, Nov. 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- U.S. News & World Report, the global authority in rankings and consumer advice, today unveiled November's list of the Best Cars to Buy Now. To make U.S. News' monthly list, a car must meet three criteria: declining sales, strong manufacturer incentives and excellent scores in the U.S. News Best Cars rankings.
"As interest rates rise, car companies are cutting back on financing deals," says Jamie Page Deaton, executive editor of U.S. News Best Cars. "However, manufacturers are using cash back deals to juice sales of slower selling models that still earn top scores in the U.S. News car rankings. The fact that you don't need a top-tier credit score to take advantage of these deals is a major benefit."
This month, U.S. News Best Cars has identified six cars and SUVs that not only offer hefty savings but are also a pleasure to own.
