About Residual Value

Residual value is the estimated value of the vehicle at the end of the lease term. Higher residual values typically result in lower monthly payments but may affect lease-end options.

Lease Payment Formula

Monthly Payment = (Vehicle Price – Down Payment – Trade-in) × (1 – Residual%) / Term + (Vehicle Price × Interest Rate / 12)

The lease payment consists of depreciation (vehicle cost minus residual value spread over the term) plus finance charges based on the interest rate.
