Let's peel out of the dealership lot with money still in our pockets, as we cruise through the latest buzz on unbeatable car deals with US News' very own John Vincent. From the allure of 0% financing to the sweet scent of cashback on models like the Nissan Murano, this episode is your GPS to navigating the deals that have auto enthusiasts' engines revving. We're not just talking sales—we're leasing into the future, unveiling why that Kia Forte lease might just be your ticket to a certified pre-owned paradise tomorrow.Shift into high gear as we dissect the strategy behind the timing of car deals and manufacturer incentives. Think of the auto industry as a high-stakes poker game; we're calling Kia's bluff and predicting their next play in the market. Enlighten yourself with the lowdown on the expected demand for the EV9 and the zero-down lease's fine print. Plus, buckle up as we tour the car lot of misfits, where the BMW X7 and iX, along with other slow sellers, are in a standoff with consumer preferences. Join us for a spirited ride through the intricacies of car sales that's as informative as it is exhilarating, with a pit stop at the heart of what makes—or breaks—a car's popularity.Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!---- ----- Want more In Wheel Time car talk any time?
