Where are you located? If you’re in the greater NYC area @aronchi could get you into a XC60 T5 at $358. Even less if you qualify for discounts. Going off may numbers because june isn’t up yet. 🇸🇪 Aronchi's NO FEE Volvo (5/17) - V60/V90, S60, S90, XC40, XC60, XC90 LOANER BLOWOUT $469+t&f! - TRISTATE AREA!
While the community appreciates your input and broker recommendation; I did find it a little strange you created an account just to push a broker’s deals.

That is honestly not my intention. I lurked for several days before creating an account as a realized how valuable the information here would be to me. It was simply a friendly recommendation as I have personally been eyeing the XC40 on that spreadsheet for about a week. If the recommendation violates guidelines or you believe it should not be posted here please feel free to remove my post.
You misunderstand, it doesn’t violate anything. The recommendation was appropriate, just an observation I made.
Back on topic; OP as others have stated, take a look in the many subforums we have and the deals offered by brokers here.
Not every car from every brand is offered in 7,500 miles a year programs so you may need to accept 10k miles.

Since you have time + open to feedback + time to do some research, based on what type of SUV you are looking for and low mileage needed on your lease…I would strongly consider the Alfa Romeo Stelvio. Pros- unique and not part of the “masses” that you see on the road everyday; amazing lease prices (search on this forum). Cons- unique and not part of the “masses” that you see on the road everyday (haha!); limited dealerships; questionable long-term quality. With that- one of my favorite cars I once owned was a SAAB, as it fit into this sort of category…which may/may not be your thing. From what I have read “here”- people are really happy with their leases due to low cost + a hot looking/unique SUV. Good luck.
Just to give you an example of what I’m talking about, in terms of price- and yes, there are a ton of posts here on this website: $261/mo - Alfa romeo Giulia, 45k MSRP, $298 DAS, $298/mo, 27 mo, 10k
While there are a lot of examples of Giulia and stelvio leases on the forums, most are 6 months + old deals and would not be reproduceable. I think December was a blow out for the 2019’s and the incentives may not be the same. Just something to look out for.

“Decided to turn in my 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokee Overland at lease maturity because the dealer would buy it without disposition.”
I want to remind FCA leasees that the dealer pays about $400 less than we do when they buy out a lease whether it is during the lease period or at the end.
I think it is B.S., but thems the rules.

Are considering a Mazda CX-5? Grand Touring Reserve comes fully loaded with the turbo. Surprisingly luxurious and fun to drive. Should be easy to come in under $400.
@StingerTT that’s a fair callout and good mention here! I’m not in the market right now for a new lease, so haven’t stayed on top of those details- and yes, with covid-19, more reason I haven’t checked! That said- if they can be had for those prices (we have seen here), OMG get one for those who are in the market for a new car! My best-
There aren’t many lease-friendly luxury SUVs out there, XC60/X3 maybe GLC. Also as suggested you can test water on the Stelvio. A lower spec’d RX350 could be somewhere around $400 as well.
Also ever considered V60CC? The June lease support is still strong and there are some ridiculous deals out there, you get much more car vs a XC60 for the same money IMO, plus you get to stay on the moral high ground of the car world for driving a wagon
I hadn’t considered the v60. I know this isn’t a popular opinion but I really enjoy the ride height of a SUV and the feeling that I’m sitting on top rather than in it - if that makes sense. Otherwise I would’ve gone with the s60 when they were sub $300.
CX-5 is on the list to check out. Will check some shared deals / trophy garage to get an idea on cost.
Thanks I’ll check it out! I’ve been eyeing the Volvo XC60 since the redesign and had tunnel vision on it but now open to checking other options out.
Thinking with your brain instead of emotion. That is wise of you. Usually it’s the opposite.
The V60CC has a slightly higher ride than a V60 and lower than an XC60. Worth at least driving them back to back to see if you notice.
I was looking at Subarus last summer before getting my XC60, and I think the ride is noticeably different between the comparable Outback and Forester, but many don’t notice the difference.

You could look into a Cadillac XT5. No idea what they are offering incentive wise, but I bet you could find a dealership with tons of these things on the lot willing to offer aggressive discounts. Lots of people on here have gotten really good deals on that vehicle.
I must have missed it…what were these deals?

Looking at Marketplace, there are some moderately well equipped X1/X2/X3s that may fit the ask. The X3s may be pushing the 400/0DAS component, but the BMW SAVs may be a good bet for you if you have tier 1 credit.
I personally really like my X5 and if it wasn’t for circumstances beyond my control, wouldn’t be getting rid of it right now.
Yeah that was back in February-April, especially with the ending of the $3,000 loaners.
V60CC has really lease cash from Volvo right now (as well as the $2,000 Costco if you are a member), and is even better in a utilitarian sense than a S60 IMO.
