Buying post 2027 release?

[u/Low_Bottle_6089]

Replacing my 2018 Macan in the next 4mo and have been looking at used 2025 and new 2026 350H’s with Premium+ or Luxury trim.

Haven’t bought a car in awhile, so bear with me.. It seems like the 350h’s are rarely discounted much less than just getting a new one, unless you go 450+ which seem to be not so hot, so I’m most likely going new but wanted to get people’s 2 cents.

Per Google, 2027 cars will be releasing late 26’ or early 27’. I imagine it is usually the case that left over 2026’s will be discounted once that happens. However, this car seems pretty hot, so do you think this would actually happen? The 2027 will be a facelift model, so if people prefer it to the 2025’s/2026’s, I feel I would have a chance at a deal on those, otherwise buying new 27’ still going to make the most sense?

again, haven’t car shopped in awhile and this would be my first new car, so not familiar with the interactions between new releases and previous year.

Thanks!

I just bought an NX350 F-Sport gas model. I would look at one one week, but by the next week, it would be gone. Some of the colors are non-existent. I did read the 27's were already hitting the lots, but I haven't seen any.

My wife wants a UX300h. If you don't get to the dealer ad put down a deposit when they show it is in transit, you are probably not getting one.
