This site is addicitive…started with considering a jetta 1.8T but some of those leasehackr scores are off the charts so broadening the net. best i could do on the jetta is $209 wq w 1500 down for 24 mos and 10k/year.
so -
chevy cruze (the trim w heated front seats?)
10k/year
24mos.
zip = 21210
any first hand experience on how this does in rough weather (i.e. snow etc,)
I found that the Cruze and Jetta Sport were similarly priced, but VW dealers were a lot more motivated to make a deal.
You probably want the LT trim on the Cruze, but the heated seats might still be an optional package. Build it on Chevy.com to see exactly what trim and packages you’ll want. Dealers have a lot of Cruze inventory and it helps to narrow things down when reaching out for info.
Also, a lot of the lease log listings are for the Cruze Limited (old body style) a few months ago when Chevy was offering insane lease incentives to clear out inventory.
