Trade in or do it seperately

Currently own a 2019 Audi. trying to lease a new EV.

do you guys think it is better to trade in for a new vehicle is better or just get a new vehicle and sell the current car to a different dealership will be better.

In some states, there’s a tax advantage for doing a trade in.

But guidance here is generally have that discussion separate from new vehicle negotiation (like after you have a good deal).

See wiki for places to get estimates on your car’s current value.
