Leasing a Car vs Buying a Car

When you’re shopping for a new car, one of the options you’ll have is a new vehicle lease. Our team can help you get the lease offer that works for you, but you also might be curious about the differences between buying vs. leasing your car.

As you’ll learn, there are benefits to leasing a car and there are benefits to buying a car. We’ve put together this quick guide to help you determine if leasing or buying is right for you.

Benefits of Leasing

When you lease a new car, you’ll enjoy your vehicle for a set number of years. This short-term agreement makes it possible to try the latest and greatest from your favorite brand. You can then choose what you do at the end of the lease term.

Along with flexibility of choice, a lease term can help you enjoy:

  • Lower Monthly Rates: Monthly lease payments are usually lower than monthly finance payments. That’s because you’re only paying for the vehicle’s depreciation rather than the full purchase price during the lease term in addition to any lease charges.
  • “Walk Away”: When your lease ends, you may return the vehicle and start a new lease if you want. You can also decide to purchase the car after your lease term ends or do something entirely different.
  • Up-Front Costs: Up-front costs of leasing a vehicle are usually less than up-front costs of buying a vehicle. Many dealerships will also have seasonal specials to add even more value.
  • Total Cost Depreciation: When you lease a car, you pay only for the depreciation expected during the lease term rather than for the full value of the vehicle.

Benefits of Buying

In comparison, buying your vehicle means you can drive it throughout its life. This long-term ownership provides more personalization and no limits on your vehicle.

When you buy your car, some of the additional benefits you’ll have include:

  • Long-Term Ownership: Buying a vehicle is a long-term investment. You and your new road companion can enjoy many future adventures together without a set end in sight.
  • Personalization: Do you have your eye on a roof accessory or an off-roading addition? When you purchase your vehicle, you’re free to customize it to your liking with no restrictions.
  • Trade or Sell Flexibility: Purchasing your car means it’s yours to trade in or sell whenever you want. If you have your eye on a different vehicle or your driving needs have changed, you can sell or trade in your current car.
  • Mileage: You can put as many miles on your car as you want because it’s your car. When you lease a vehicle, you’ll have a set number of miles you can drive. Have a road trip in your future? You might want to purchase your car to make that kind of trip without limitations.
