Hello,
Apologies to all for what seems to be a very basic question. I’m new to all this and needed some clarity. I’m looking to lease a 2024 electric MB with a $60k MSRP and saw some older posts on here mentioning the various incentives and rebates. Some posts I’ve read say that people have gotten these deals on Mercedes EVs recently:
“Key terms: Dealer discount 20%. Another dealer offered 21%. Rebates: Fleet, Lease Cash, loyalty”
“Total discount of ~45% = 20% dealer discount + 11% dealer cash + 14% lease cash. The dealer and lease cash goes further on the low MSRP vehicles.”
The dealer I spoke with offered “$9,500 lease discount and $7,500 dealer discount” off of MSRP. Is the first number (what he calls the “lease discount”) actually a combination of the dealer discount and the dealer cash of AAA Fleet Incentive? Is the second number the “MB Lease Bonus Cash” coming from Mercedes itself? So does that mean the dealer is only offering $2,000 off of the MSRP as a dealer discount? Am I missing any other incentives that can be stacked here (I’ve listed the two below that I am aware of), or does getting the MSRP down at this point essentially involve only negotiating with the dealer to offer a further dealer discount since this is a 2024? Does it seem like the other posters here have been getting a 20% dealer discount (way more than $2,000), on top of the MB Lease Bonus Cash and Fleet Incentive (and loyalty if they qualify)? FYI I don’t qualify for “loyalty” rebates. Thank you for the help!
I see that there are currently offers for:
-MB Lease Bonus Cash: $7,000
-AAA 2024 Fleet Incentive: $7,500 (The dealer said that the American Express $500 discount is not stackable with this)
