DON'T FALL INTO THESE ASSUMPTION TRAPS:
- "Buying is always the better long-term investment."
- "Leasing is always more expensive."
- "Ownership equals control."
Many buyers make the same assumptions. Don't make financial decisions without getting the facts.
The Model 1 Buy vs. Lease Roadmap will help you understand which option fits your needs.


BUYING VS. LEASING:
FINANCIAL DIFFERENCES
Both options will involve financial processing, and you should expect to provide credit information. How that information will be used will depend on which path you choose.
If buying:
- Our in-house finance team will review your application and down payment (if applicable) to determine the loan amount, rate, and term for which you may qualify.
If leasing:
- Similar to the application to buy, our financing experts will review your information to create the best-fit rate and payment for the length of your lease.
