2018 Hyundai Sonata SEL lease terms - Help me assess this deal

Hello all! Thanks for all the awesome information this website offers. I am trying to help my MIL lease a new car and have this deal ready to go, but was hopeful someone might be able to look at it and let me know if it is a good deal or not: We are in Illinois

3 yrs/10K per year
MSRP $24,710
Sell 19,446
Residual - 54%
MF - 0.001

Due at signing
1st monthly payment $245.00
Transfer plates $145.00
Doc Fee $175.94

Monthly $245 including tax (10.25%)

Thank you in advance for your time.

Because of different incentives, it is actually better to buy the SEL this month. However, if a lease is mandatory, i would look at the SE model. Lease cash on it is 2500 vs 1500 for the SEL. Both have 750 sales event cash in the Chicago area.

Your current deal is very good if that is the model your MIL desires. Loyalty cash is an additional $1000 if that is a factor.

tonyg2017,

Thank you for your input. Yes she would prefer to lease vs. buy. The SE didn’t have the features she was interested in (heated seats, remote start) so we looked at the SEL. Thanks.
