Thinking about buying a car?

Here’s what to review before you go: vehicle choices, your trade, financing options, incentives, and the numbers that matter.

Before You Go

Use this quick review before visiting the dealer or discussing a deal.

Know the exact vehicle and trim you are considering
Review equipment, warranty, recalls, reliability, fuel economy or EV range, and ownership-cost questions
Check local market ranges and current incentives
If you have a trade, know the payoff and keep the trade discussion separate from the vehicle price
If financing, compare APR, term, amount financed, and any preapproval
Ask how promotional APR, rebates, or cash incentives affect each other
One next step: write down the exact vehicle/trim and the one financing, trade, or incentive question you most want answered before you go.

Additional Assistance Available
