Best lease <$240 in Northern California?

Hi all,
I just moved to the Bay area and am looking for a car-either a 4 door sedan like a sonata-or some kind of reasonable crossover/SUV to lease in the next couple of weeks

I want to spend around 200 a month and not too much more. The SUV is preferred but really anything that isnt too small is fine.

I had a sonata lease until last month, so if I lease another Hyundai, I get back a $400 disposition fee which makes it more worthwhile, but not absolutely necessary that I get a Hyundai.
Any ideas on the numbers on the Sonata out here now? Santa Fe?

I am really flexible-any good recommendations of what to think about? Any other makes?

Thanks!

In Norcal, please avail yourself of excellent electric/hybrid incentives.
VW e Golf
Hyundai Sonata Hybrid
Kia Optima Hybrid
BMW I3
Chevrolet Volt

I believe all can be had for under $200. Good luck.

If you don’t need to use the rear seats often, the Volt with rear seats folded down can store quite a bit of cargo. And you can find deals to lease one for <$240 a month with minimal down.

Just know the Volt needs charged about every 50 miles to take full advantage of its design.

True…but even if you never charged it, it still gets 42 MPG overall, which will likely beat anything else in the stated price range except a Prius (if they can even be had for <$240/month, $0 down).
