Lease quote for Audi e-tron

Backstory: I am in the quest to find a replacement vehicle after my beloved G90 was totaled by a moron :angry:. Thankfully I am not in a hurry because we have a spare car in the family. Hence, I am test driving and getting quotes for cars which I’d love to lease but are not typically advertised by brokers/dealers in this forum.

Yesterday I posted a deal on Kia K900. Today it’s turn for another rare breed - Audi e-tron. I test drove and really liked how it drove, how the exterior/interior is etc. Then I asked for a lease quote.

(Please make sure you are seated comfortably without chance of falling before proceeding further.)

Model: Audi e-tron Prestige
MSRP: $82,395
Discount: “Are you kidding me?”
Lease Rebate: $7,500 (Federal Tax incentive is passed on)
Residual: 50% :exploding_head:
MF: 0.0033 :cry:

Monthly: $1375 + tax with $2,700 DAS

I left the dealership speechless!

Well at least they’re not kidding themselves with what it will be worth in 3 years

The residual makes sense. The 0.0033 MF is pure cash grab to fleece EV buyers.

Most dealers are holding MSRP on these. For now at least.

They bumped the MF a point.

These aren’t going to be hacker friendly for a bit, especially a prestige.

I’m excited to have them in the line up!

Thanks for sharing your perspective from the other side of the desk, Donny. I kinda guessed something was fishy with the MF.

Are the e-tron buyers mostly financing or paying cash at this point?

Mostly financing from my experience, I’ve seen a couple lease. But yes, even best case scenario you’re looking at a 1100+ monthly payment.

Trust me - if/when these can be hacked I will be driving one around!

Why don’t you hack one of those Model X deals? Here is a contact,

You can finance a Model X P100d ludicrous for the same amount of monthly payment. It’s June so it’s the best time to shop for Tesla.

If they were offering sales tax credits (Texas) on a discounted S i may have stretched a little to put myself in one, wife even told me to try to leasehack one before we picked up the Bimmers, lol.

It’s a reference to the end of quarter push that goes on at Tesla.

Good lord, that is bad.

I was also looking at the e-tron, and these prices are just retarded. It’s not even a proven car.

They must not be all that interested in getting people into these.

I think the one universal truth is: new product doesn’t lease well. If 0 dealers are paying $0 in floorplan because they just came off trucks in plastic, 0 lease deals are there to be found. Reviews have been pretty good so why not see if there is pent up demand for these? VW has bet big on electric, they need it to pay off.

The demand is just starting to pick up…this is probably a inventory problem more than anything else.

$1400 a month and I’m thinking loaded Cayenne.

$1,400/mo I’m thinking mortgage payment on an Airbnb house.

Any recent lease deals on E-trons? I have a feeling prices will start coming down consideraly once initial demand is fulfilled!
