Deal hunter: $25K-plus discount for 2023 Jeep Gladiator
Plus similarly-attractive savings for Peugeot 3008 GT Sport and Nissan LEAF buyersThe 2023 Jeep Gladiator Rubicon is not normally a cheap vehicle at $87,250 plus on-road costs – which equates to almost $100,000 once it’s on the road with a few extras.
But the flamboyant American dual-cab 4x4 pick-up is one of the most hard-core vehicles available in standard form, thanks to an arsenal of proven off-road hardware and software that helps justify its asking price.
And right now MY23 versions of the big all-terrain ute can be had from just $70,000 drive-away, making it something of a steal in the current market when you consider that hero off-roaders like the Ford Ranger Raptor start from a heady $90,440 plus ORC, and the more mellow Nissan Navara PRO-4X Warrior opens at $68,265 plus ORCs.
So how much are you saving on the flagship Jeep Gladiator? A cool $17,250 from the price tag alone, plus almost $10,000 worth of statutory on-road costs depending on which state you’re in, yielding a total saving of more than $25,000 nationally.
The Gladiator is massive, however, making it less than ideal to park in your local cafe strip or shopping centre, which is the preferred domain of smaller mid-size SUVs like the 2023 Peugeot 3008 GT Sport automatic.
This compact French family-hauler is normally priced at $63,390 plus ORCs, but with Peugeot Australia looking to boost sales and clear old stock, the MY23’s price tag has been trimmed to a very appealing $50,990 drive-away – a discount of more than $16,000 by the time it’s on your driveway.
In exchange, you’ll get French style, a loaded spec sheet and a 133kW/250Nm 1.6-litre turbo-petrol powertrain, but no all-wheel drive.
But if you’re in the market for an affordable EV and not keen on a Chinese car, you should probably take a look at the ongoing Nissan LEAF promo.
Until September 30, the base 2023 Nissan LEAF hatch can be purchased and driven away for just $39,990 – instead of the usual $50,990 plus ORCs.
And that’s before the remaining state-specific EV incentives/rebates are factored in.
