My wife and I are trying to figure out what type of mid size suv to lease next. We are currently leasing an XC90 - any suggestions, direction or input? We’ve kicked around the idea of a Grand Cherokee Altitude but I feel we need options in order to get the best deal/value. Falling in love with one type of truck leads to nothing good. We’re in NJ. Also, is it possible a Volvo dealer would take back our truck a bit early?
Have both an XC90 and a Grand Cherokee V8. The quality between the Jeep and the Volvo are night and day. I think you may want to look at something more like a BMW. Volvo will do a 9 month pull aheads on XC90’s. XC60s and XC90s are leasing well now so you might want to look into that.
I looked at a 2018 X5 yesterday which was in the showroom. Had squeaks and rattles, uneven plastic gaps, big time quality problems! Even made a video LOL. Terrible build quality.
Any reason why you’re concerned with resale value on a leased vehicle? For me, it feels like for good leases that the RV is pretty much divorced from all reality in terms of how much the car is really worth at the end of a lease. You should be trying to find vehicles with a lot of room up top (% off MSRP), combined with a high posted residual value and MF.
