There are a great number of ways that leasing benefits people, from lower cost at drive off to fewer inconvenient breakdowns. This is a great way of financing your next vehicle, so you should carefully consider it before heading to the Honda dealership.

1. Leasing Benefits People with Tight Monthly Budgets

Leasing can cost less every month than buying the same model, so it may be a good idea to consider leasing if you have a tighter budget every month. The exact price and cost savings depend on the model you’re considering, but you could potentially save a couple of hundred dollars every month by leasing instead of buying your next car.

2. Leasing is Great For Cutting Initial Costs

Leasing can reduce costs at drive off, as the fees that you have to pay when leasing often come to less than the price of a typical 20 percent down payment. When you add other costs, such as taxes and registration on top of your down payment, the initial cost of buying a car can be even higher. Although there are certain initial costs when leasing, not having to pay a few thousand dollars as a down payment can save you some money.

3. Leasing Keeps You in Newer Cars

Most car leases are two to three years long. Car owners tend to buy a new car every eight years. This means you’ll probably get a new car more often when leasing, so you’re always driving a new car with the latest upgrades in technology and safety features.

4. Leasing Reduces Repair Costs

Newer vehicles tend to break down and have problems less frequently than older ones. Because people who lease tend to drive newer cars, it leads to less money spent on repairs. Plus, fewer car problems means less inconvenience.

5. Leasing Makes Changing Cars Seamless

You don’t have to trade in or privately sell your leased vehicle when you finish driving it. You bring it back to the dealer, pay any fees you owe, and that’s that. If you want to lease your next car, then you can arrange that ASAP. You don’t have to shop around for car loans like you would when buying a new car. It’s a quick, easy process to get a new vehicle.
