• The Costco Auto Program allows Costco members to buy discounted cars from participating dealerships.
• A wide variety of vehicle types and models are available to buy or lease.
• The Costco car-buying program also offers special deals and no-haggle pricing. 

Between sky-high prices and scarce inventory, buying a new car has become a massive headache. Costco’s car-buying program aims to make purchasing a new vehicle less of a hassle for the wholesale chain’s paying members. 

Through the Costco Auto Program, Costco members can search for a variety of vehicles — including sedans, pickups, SUVs, and RVs — and buy them through the more than 3,000 dealerships Costco partners with. The program also offers limited-time, member-exclusive deals on particular brands, which it announces monthly.

A major perk of the Costco car-buying program is that it provides members prearranged pricing, removing haggling from experience. In today’s tight auto market, however, finding a great deal may be tough, even with Costco’s help. 

Once you’ve chosen a vehicle and your preferred trim, features, and exterior color, Costco sends you the contact information for a participating dealership and salesperson, at which point you can visit the dealership to find out the vehicle’s discounted price and decide if you’d like to buy or lease it.

Costco members can also get a 15% discount on parts, service, and accessories at participating service centers. And they can buy their tires and gas through the big-box superstore. 

Here’s how you can use your Costco car-buying program to save money on your next vehicle purchase:
