Leasing can be an appealing way to experience the comfort, performance, and advanced technology of a new INFINITI. Instead of committing to long-term ownership, you can enjoy a new vehicle for a fixed period and then decide what comes next. At Berglund INFINITI of Roanoke, our finance professionals can help you compare leasing and financing based on your budget, driving habits, and plans.
A lease lets you drive a new INFINITI for an agreed-upon term, which commonly ranges from 24 to 48 months. Rather than paying toward ownership of the entire vehicle, your payments generally cover its expected depreciation during the lease period, along with applicable rent charges, taxes, and fees. Your lease agreement will establish important details such as your monthly payment, mileage allowance, lease-end date, and potential charges. Review these terms carefully so you understand your responsibilities before signing.
Monthly affordability is one of the most recognized benefits of leasing. Because lease payments are based primarily on the vehicle’s expected depreciation during the contract, they may be lower than payments for financing the same model. Actual payments will depend on factors such as the vehicle, lease term, credit approval, amount due at signing, and available offers. A lower payment could help you select a newer INFINITI or a higher trim with features that might otherwise fall outside your preferred monthly budget.
INFINITI vehicles continue to evolve with updated technology, convenience features, styling, and driver-assistance systems. Since a typical lease lasts only a few years, leasing makes it easier to switch to a newer model more often. At the end of your current lease, you can return your vehicle and explore the latest INFINITI lineup. This flexibility may be particularly attractive if you enjoy keeping up with new automotive features rather than owning the same vehicle for many years.
Many drivers appreciate that their lease term may overlap with the vehicle’s new-vehicle warranty period. Warranty coverage can offer additional confidence by helping address eligible repairs under the applicable warranty terms. Coverage varies, so speak with our team about the warranty included with the INFINITI you are considering. You should also review your responsibilities for routine maintenance, wear, and vehicle care.
Selling or trading a vehicle requires you to consider its condition, mileage, market value, and depreciation. Leasing can help you avoid many of those resale concerns. If you decide to return your INFINITI at lease-end, you will not have to find a buyer or negotiate a trade-in value. Mileage limits and standards for excess wear still apply. Selecting a mileage allowance that reflects your normal driving habits can help you avoid unexpected charges when the lease ends.
When your INFINITI lease concludes, you generally have three options:
If you return the vehicle, INFINITI requires a complimentary inspection. Berglund INFINITI of Roanoke recommends scheduling it during the final 60 days of your lease. Completing the inspection early gives you time to consider any needed repairs before the vehicle is returned. If you purchase your leased INFINITI, excess-mileage and excessive-wear charges generally will not apply, although other costs, such as sales tax, registration fees, and a purchase-option fee, may be due.
Leasing may suit you if you:
Financing may be a better fit if you want to build equity, keep your vehicle long-term, customize it, or drive without a contractual mileage limit. Our finance team can explain both approaches and help you make an informed decision.
