The COVID-19 pandemic has turned the economy upside down. What was once a thriving economy with low unemployment has now turned into a disaster. Businesses are going bankrupt, and millions of Americans remain unemployed.
One industry, in particular, hit hard was the automobile industry. With so much unemployment, people don’t have an incentive to purchase vehicles right now. That is why several renowned automobile manufacturers are introducing exclusive deals to encourage people to buy their cars.
Many lenders and banking institutions that partner with automobile manufacturers are offering generous deals on their car loans. You can find a unique deal provided by virtually every famous automobile manufacturer in the business. You have to agree to take out your car loan through their lending partner or subsidiary.
Let’s examine the top 19 deals on automobiles amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
