I am just starting my journey on looking at a new lease. I am in the middle of a home purchase set to close at the end of April, and shortly thereafter I’ll be looking for a new vehicle, but I’m not in a hurry (just cruising in my faithful '08 toyota sienna!)
I am attracted to the 4xe for the decent fuel economy along with basic offroad capabilities, but I’m in no way married to the idea.
There are a couple local dealerships in Portland OR area, and some numbers I see online are:
New 2024 Jeep Wrangler High Altitude 4xe
MSRP: $70,580
Additional Savings: $6,750
Discounts: $7637
Selling Price: $56,193
(2024 DJR National Retail Consumer Cash 24CR1 $3000)
(Federal EV Tax Credit $3750)
New vehicle pricing includes all offers and incentives. Tax, Title and Tags not included in vehicle prices shown and must be paid by the purchaser. While great effort is made to ensure the accuracy of the information on this site, errors do occur so please verify information with a customer service rep. This is easily done by calling us at [redacted] or by visiting us at the dealership. Advertised price after all rebates have been applied.
I’m waiting to go in and ‘apply’ since my credit must remain untouched until after the home purchase… but I’m trying to figure out what my “target” should be on a lease deal. I tried filling in a calculator with the above info but I’m not sure if I’m doing it right? I had to guess the RV and MF based on this for now.
For homework, I see on this CA dealer link that they offer:
Year, Make, Model, and Trim: 2024 Jeep Wrangler Sahara High Alt 4xe
MSRP: $66,XXX
Monthly Payment: $650 plus tax
Drive-Off Amount: $4000
Months: 36
Annual Mileage: 10k
So I figure that is a good base point of comparison?
I see for this person 1 year ago, there was a similar offering going (7500 EV credit I think is about equivalent to the discounts I see today/above?)
And also this comment by @harrydogyo stating he got a '23 Rubicon 4xe 36/10 1419$ DAS 395/month
I’m hoping I can get an additional 1000$ off with a TDM code, although I haven’t been able to figure out getting one from the jeep website yet (Maybe you can help me harrydogyo?)
Also, just to make sure I understand some things correctly… is the RV of say .63 based on that purchase price? So it will be worth (56193 * .63 = ) $35,401 at the end of the lease? (and therefor, my cost is going to be at least 21k of lost value, plus ‘rent’, and plus fees? So, around $760/mo?)
