The 2026 VISTIQ gets the same 0.9% over 72 months as the 2027, without the cash bonus.

Top 5 luxury car finance deals
Top 5 luxury sedan and coupe finance offers for October 2026, ranked by Finance Score.
The 3 Series leads luxury cars at 16.50% on BMW‘s 0.9% over 60 months.
It saves $8,895 on a $53,900 sticker. BMW’s listed price is up from $47,125 in September, which is why the dollar saving rose.
The 7 Series shares the same 0.9% over 60 months and saves $18,697 on a $113,300 sticker.
That’s the second biggest dollar saving on the page, behind only the Infiniti QX80.
The 2 Series drops to 2.99% over 60 months, which is why it scores 11.02% instead of 16.50%.
BMW saves its best rate for the bigger cars, so the entry model is the weaker buy here.
The 2027 5 Series climbed into the top five after BMW cut its rate from 3.99% to 2.99% over 60 months.
It now matches the 2 Series at 11.02%, up from 8.34%, and saves $7,478 on a $67,850 sticker.
The CT4 pairs 3.9% with $1,250 cash over a short 36 months, reaching 8.47%.
The cash does the work. A 36-month term leaves little interest to save on a $36,390 car.

Luxury finance deals to avoid this month
The weakest luxury finance offers we scored
- 2027 Lexus RX 350 (score: 4.42%) 4.99% APR over 48 months on a $51,175 SUV, saving $2,263. It’s the lowest score on the page, and a credit union will often match that rate.
- 2026 Mercedes-Benz C-Class (score: 5.37%) 1.99% APR over 24 months on a $51,000 sedan, saving $2,737. The rate is low, but two years leaves little interest to save.
- 2026 Mercedes-Benz CLA (score: 5.37%) The same terms on a $48,600 car. Every one of the 22 Mercedes models we scored shares them, and they fill the bottom of the table.
How to evaluate any luxury finance deal
Why luxury scores run lower
Luxury brands rarely offer 0% APR, and they favour short terms. A 24-month loan gives a low rate almost nothing to work against, which is why all 22 Mercedes models sit at 5.37% on a rate of just 1.99%.
Work out the interest a 7% loan would cost over the same term, subtract the interest the manufacturer rate costs, then add any cash bonus.
Finance Score = total savings / sticker x 100
What the ratings mean
Luxury SUVs and cars are scored on the same scale as every other page, so 16.50% here means the same thing it does on the mainstream SUV page.
The 22 Mercedes-Benz models at 5.37% mark the floor this month, with only the 2027 Lexus RX 350 below them. Positive, but small enough that a credit union rate will often beat it.
Frequently asked questions
These offers may vary based on location, credit score, and financing terms, and are not guaranteed. Use our free service to check discount car prices to get the best prices that include current manufacturer offers and incentives.
Run the Numbers Before You Sign
Manufacturer financing is not automatically cheaper than your own bank. Work out the payment on the actual price and term, then check whether the low rate really beats taking the cash bonus instead.
