Frequently asked questions
How is a lease payment calculated?
Monthly payment = depreciation (price − residual, ÷ months) + a finance charge on (price + residual). This tool shows both parts.
What is residual value?
The vehicle's estimated worth at lease end. A higher residual means less depreciation and a lower monthly payment.
