Choose what fits your plans

Finance or lease?

How long you plan to keep your vehicle, how much you drive, and what you want to spend all help shape the choice.

Finance your vehicle

Your payments repay the loan used to buy your car. Once the loan is paid off, the vehicle is yours to keep.

  • A good option to consider if you plan to keep your vehicle for several years.
  • No lease mileage allowance, although mileage and condition affect resale value.
  • You can sell or trade your vehicle, with any remaining loan balance handled as part of the transaction.

Lease your vehicle

Drive a vehicle for an agreed term and mileage allowance. At lease-end, return it or buy it if your agreement includes a purchase option.

  • An option to consider if you enjoy moving into a newer vehicle every few years.
  • Choose a mileage allowance that matches how you actually drive.
  • Review excess mileage, wear, early termination and other applicable charges in your agreement.

Understand the whole picture

More than a monthly payment.

We’ll walk through the numbers with you. Comparing the payment alongside the amount financed, term and total cost helps you make an informed choice.

A longer loan can lower the monthly payment while increasing the interest paid over time. Taxes, fees, insurance and maintenance matter to your budget, too.

Calculator results are estimates. Your actual payment depends on the vehicle, final terms, taxes, fees, and lender approval.

APR and loan term

Amount financed

TOTAL due at delivery

Your trade and payoff

Good questions. Clear answers.

Financing & leasing questions

What affects my rate and loan terms?

Lenders consider factors including credit history, income, debts, the amount borrowed, down payment, loan term, and the vehicle. Available terms depend on the lender’s review and the applicable program.

Does submitting an application guarantee approval?

No. An application starts the review process. Approval and the terms available to you depend on the lender’s decision.

Can I trade a vehicle that still has a loan?

Yes. We’ll review its value and the amount needed to pay off your existing loan. If you owe more than the trade is worth, that difference still needs to be addressed and may affect your down payment or amount financed.

How many lease miles should I choose?

Think about your commute, errands, trips and likely changes in your driving. Ask us to compare available mileage options, and review the agreement’s excess-mileage charge before choosing.

What happens at the end of a lease?

Your agreement explains the return requirements, any applicable charges, and whether there is a purchase option. We can help you understand the next steps before your lease ends.
