The models listed from CR analysts are focused on SUVs from Buick, Cadillac, Chevrolet, Ford, GMC, and Mazda that offer the best new SUV deals you will find right now for SUV shoppers looking for the best deals on good, safe, and reliable models.

That said, here are the models listed in rank order by the percentage of potential savings off MSRP, but be forewarned---"Although each model highlighted here has incentives, transaction data from our partner TrueCar shows that, on average, most of these are selling for a bit over sticker price,” adds CR analysts on their latest listing.
