Here’s everything you need to know about getting a lease deal at Kearny Mesa Chevrolet.

Leasing vs. Purchasing an Electric Vehicle

When you lease a vehicle, you get to drive it for a few years (often as a brand-new model in its most trouble-free years) and then turn it in for a new one. Although down payments aren’t usually required, you’ll need to pay some basic fees before you can drive your Chevrolet EV model home.

By contrast, purchasing requires a down payment, an interest rate, and monthly payments toward your car loan. You will own the vehicle outright after you’ve paid the loan off in full.

The Benefits of Leasing an EV

Leasing a Chevrolet EV comes with plenty of advantages, including:

    • Lower maintenance costs. EVs have fewer moving parts than traditional gas-powered or even hybrid models. You won’t need any oil changes or engine repairs with an EV.
  • Always drive the latest model. Technology seems to move at the speed of light, so once your EV lease comes to an end, you can trade it in for a brand-new model with even cooler tech.
  • Since you likely won’t have to pay a down payment on your lease, you can save the cash you would’ve spent if you were to purchase an EV.

And, since both new and pre-owned Chevrolet EVs at our San Diego, CA Chevrolet dealership are eligible for great lease deals, you can pick the all-electric model that speaks to you.

Electric Vehicle Tax Credits

You might think that leasing an electric vehicle prevents you from taking advantage of the federal EV tax credit for low or zero-emission autos. However, fortunately, that’s inaccurate. Tax credits are available for some EVs — just look up your EV model and see if it’s eligible.
