These 7 SUVs Just Got a Lot Cheaper in 2025
Prices on new vehicles rarely fall dramatically, but in 2025, some SUVs have seen surprising discounts. If you’ve been holding off on a purchase, now might be your moment. Here are seven SUVs whose price tags have dropped. Plus, we will take a look at where the discounts are happening and what to watch for when you go into negotiations.
1. 2025 Toyota bZ4X
Toyota knocked off nearly 14% from the base price of the 2025 bZ4X, lowering it to around $37,070 from about $43,070. That’s a meaningful cut in the EV space, where margins often stay high. Toyota is clearly pushing volume and competitiveness against rivals. If you were eyeing an EV, this makes the bZ4X more compelling than before. Just make sure the battery warranty and incentives still apply under the new pricing.
2. 2025 Mercedes-Benz EQB
Mercedes recently slashed the effective monthly cost on the 2025 EQB-Class by about $100, bringing its lease and purchase deals into friendlier territory. For people watching luxury compact SUVs, that’s a signal that the glitz is no longer enough. Price matters. Alongside that drop, some regions now offer better incentives or rebates. If you like the design and features of the EQB, now is a stronger buying moment. As always, check total cost, not just monthly payment.
3. Cadillac Lyriq
The Cadillac Lyriq has seen a combination of base rebates, loyalty discounts, and lower dealer markup as Cadillac tries to keep it competitive. The EV market is getting tougher, so brands are more aggressive on pricing. For buyers who love the Lyriq’s design and luxury feel, the lowered cost makes it more accessible. Make sure you confirm how much of the discount is dealer-offered versus built into MSRP. That way, you don’t get overcharged.
4. BMW iX
BMW is looking to move the older inventory of the iX SUV ahead of next-gen models. That means more aggressive discounting, incentives, or rate promotions. Even luxury brands must respond to soft demand and shifting consumer priorities. If you’re shopping for an EV or high-end crossover, you may find one of these iX deals dirtier than expected. But check carefully—some discounts come with caveats like limited trims or colors.
5. Xpeng G6
Chinese automaker Xpeng reduced prices on both its G6 and G9 SUVs in early 2025, with the G6 seeing an 11.6% reduction. While this drop is domestic to China, it signals a global trend: EV makers are pushing prices downward. If you live in a market where Xpeng enters or imports are possible, this could translate to better deals locally. Watch for shipping, import duties, and warranty implications, though.
6. Mercedes EQE SUV
Mercedes’ EQE SUV is getting more aggressive pricing as demand softens for electric luxury crossovers. They’re layering incentives, rebates, and reduced markups to accelerate sales. This means better leverage for buyers who compare different EQ models. If you like the styling and brand prestige, this could bring one within reach. Always verify the total cost across trim levels before committing.
7. Hyundai Ioniq 5
Hyundai slashed prices on most versions of the Ioniq 5 in its 2026 lineup (but the effect spills into 2025 pricing too), cutting as much as $9,800 off certain trims. That’s one of the steeper drops in the EV segment this year. If you were considering one, the lowered pricing makes it harder to say no. Be sure the trim you want is still eligible, as stock might be limited. Also, check resale incentives and warranty terms tied to the new pricing.
Why 2025 Is a Smart Window for SUV Buyers
Prices on many SUVs got cheaper in 2025 due to EV pressure, inventory backlogs, and luxury segment cooling. Buyers who wait may lose access to the best deals or desired specs. But being savvy (comparing total cost, incentives, and trim details) makes all the difference. This year could be a sweet spot where newer tech meets bargain pricing. Don’t rush blindly: use this list, test drive aggressively, and negotiate smart.
