While I wish I did this a month or two ago…I am shopping for a Lyriq Sport to replace an expiring Audi Q4 e-tron lease (due back in May). Targeting a 24-month transferable EV crossover lease at/under $400/mo with minimal DAS so this car fits the bill. While I am still chasing Fart cars… I got a local dealer “counter” quote on a new unit but I’m having trouble replicating the numbers in the calculator (with Ratefinder numbers) — the payment doesn’t line up with the inputs they gave me, which makes me skeptical . Would appreciate a second set of eyes and input VS current Lyriq market
A few questions:
An extended family member just started working with GM. Is the GM EV Supplier Friends allowance ($1,000) incentive something I can easily get — would it stack with the 3k I already have
any aggressive loaner leads in the Southeast anyone care to share? I’m open to those as well.
Unless GA again changed the taxation on specific leases or something is off - it should be the GATVT which shows as 332$. which is not in line with the 7% on total lease. I recall having same issues with the Audi lease where tax numbers never made sense.
edit - finally decided to have a little AI help:
The issue: TAVT on the quote is only $331.98, which is exactly 7% of the depreciation ($56,140 − $51,398 = $4,742). But under HB 63 (effective Jan 2022), GA TAVT on leases should be 7% of depreciation + amortized amounts + down payments — which would put it closer to $760+. That missing ~$400+ explains why my calculator numbers don’t match.
Is the dealer calculating TAVT incorrectly, or does GM Financial structure leases in a way that minimizes the amortized component for TAVT purposes?
Anyone in GA recently close a Lyriq lease who can confirm what their TAVT actually was?
