As you might be aware by now, there are special offers currently employed by car brands amid the coronavirus pandemic, which, by the way, can be availed while you're stuck at home. This crisis may not be the best time to buy a car, but with these deals currently on offer, you might want to consider getting one.
Now, the current deals don't end there. CarsDirect has published a list of car brands that offer additional discounts for healthcare workers that are at the front lines during this pandemic. The offers range from $500 to $750 discount, which can be combined with other discounts to as much as $1,500, such in the case of Mazda.
Car Deals Amid The Crisis:
Here are the car brands that offer additional discounts to healthcare professionals, which include but not limited to medical doctors, nurses, physician assistants, and technicians.
Note: These offers may change without prior notice and may not be offered in some dealerships, so it's better to contact your local dealer to confirm.
GM (Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, and GMC)
Even before the coronavirus crisis, GM already has its First Responder Discount. This month, however, GM includes healthcare workers. All of which are now eligible for the GM Supplier Pricing – prenegotiated discount that's the same with dealer's invoice price plus a $200 program fee.
Participating GM brands include Chevrolet, Buick, Cadillac, and GMC. This offer can be used in conjunction with other deals like the limited 0% financing for 84 months.
Qualifications include proof of employment, like a paystub from the last 30 days. The offer stands until June 30, 2020 and is available nationwide.
Honda
All Honda vehicles are eligible to be acquired through the Honda First Responder & Healthcare Professional Appreciation Program. A $500 discount is currently on offer when financing or leasing via Honda Financial, which becomes $750 if you're getting an Acura, except for the NSX and the limited-edition PMC models.
Moreover, the discount can be combined with other incentives like Honda's $1,000 loyalty discount currently on offer this month. Also, CarsDirect reports that the 2020 Honda Pilot will be cheaper by $30 per month when compared to March.
This offer from Honda is available through July 6, 2020.
