Almost $900 effective doesn’t really pass the smell test for a XC90. Not when it’s an obsolete model urgently needing replacement. And not when a newer model like a Mazda CX90 can be had for like ~30% less with more and newer features.
Nor does the concept of a 72m spend (3 x 24m leases) of almost $64k for a car that can be bought for around the same amount plus tax. Why would anyone leave that kinda value (let’s say $20,000?) on the table
Thanks everyone. I walked away from this deal. Dealer wouldn’t move from ~$900/month effective. Looking at other deals it seems like $800-$840 effective is possible, but takes more work.
It’s not an exact number obviously but how much equity would a six year old XC90 have? As opposed to making lease payments over 72m and accumulating 0 equity.
After all a gas car can be bought on day one or a PHEV can be leased and bought out within a month.
