Financing vs. Leasing
In the decision to lease or finance a vehicle, there are a few important things to consider. A Toyota lease gives you a number of advantages such as lower monthly payments compared to the cost of financing a vehicle. On the other hand, financing gives you the benefits of eventually owning the vehicle yourself. Let’s take a closer look at the differences.
Leasing Advantages
- Generally, a lease will get you lower monthly payments and up-front costs than financing the same vehicle would
- You can upgrade to the newest model every few years, often without incurring higher payments
- You typically pay lower taxes, as you only pay tax on the monthly payment as opposed to the full purchase price of the vehicle
- A number of options become available at the end of the lease: You can return that vehicle, You can lease a new vehicle, and You can finance or buy that vehicle
- Toyota has great trade and resale value
- Lease loyalty incentives
- Less maintenance costs with shorter terms
Should you choose to purchase that vehicle at lease-end, there are a number of financing options offered here at Collingwood Toyota.
Financing Advantages
- There are no penalties for wear and tear to the vehicle
- You can acquire vehicle equity
- As a future trade-in, you will benefit from tax savings on your next purchase
