How do you like the wind? It has great EV mileage whatever that is called.
I really enjoy my E Tron, but I drive about 15,000 miles a year and with California utilities that’s about $.50 a kilowatt and the only reason I went electric is so I can use the carpool lane which I need.
Hopefully, as the EV market starts to get more saturated will see more lease deals.
Maybe I’ll put together a list of the best EV lease deals if there isn’t one already.
Hate to say it but EQS is still one of the best, even though lease deals have gotten worse since 2-3 months ago. It’s still a very good value proposition. And if you want range, the sedan can go 400+ miles.
I have an Ioniq 5 which has been a great vehicle, but since buying in February (Hyundai lease deal wasn’t out yet), I’ve realized leasing an EV is the way to go, both for the $7500 that often isn’t applicable otherwise and because of the hefty depreciation.
I’m content holding tight for now, but I’m keeping an eye on EQE SUV or Q8 e-tron deals to hopefully get silly in the future.
I’m gonna have to see what Mercedes has for the one pay everything I saw so far is a 12 month lease. I think I’d want something that’s at least 24 months.
My biggest problem is I’m in Southern California and electricity rates are high, so I want something that is economical when it comes to mileage for the EV. Also I drive a lot.
What is more and more EVs come out I think having a list it would be great so I wanted to make this post but selfishly. I also wanted to see what’s available.
The id4 is very efficient in the RWD configuration. I get way over 300 miles on mine on a full charge. It isn’t the fastest car but it does drive nice and has great build quality. The lease deal was really good but I bought mine out. Can not pay that money factor… that goes for all these EV leases except the Mercedes in my opinion.
I’ll give it some thought, but best bets today are:
JGC 4xe
Wrangler 4xe
There’s plenty of others available, none of which lease well or are necessarily good lease to buy candidates. Please correct me if you know of any and I’ll amend the above.
