Maybe I just got lucky with the model, but small Japanese SUV is what I needed.

This is a manufacturer’s promotion. They’re losing money on the loan to off load excess cars.

Can I get one on a RAV Hybrid or CRV Hybrid, I think these are less popular since everyone goes electric?

Don't be lazy. Go to the Honda and Toyota websites. They're promotions, so they advertise these things. However, those are two of the top selling SUVs in the US.

Would it be better to wait for this series of race cuts and buy a car in six months?

Fed lower rates in Sep, so by Oct you should see regular rates at 5%. This is going to be a 50 basic point cut, you can be sure.

I heard 75 bps cut!

Neither of these posters have any basis for claiming to know what size rate cut, if any, will occur.

PenFed has a 4.7. I see some cars listing 2.99 so OP should be able to get 4 with some footwork

you are lucky if you can find 5%. Even with a 800 credit score they are between 6-7%

We are looking at in demands cars I think -- no rebates seem available.

we are shopping for a new car and thinking about how much financing will be.

it looks like we should be able to find 5% easily, any chance of a 2-3% at a credit union or something?
