An estimate, not a quote. The payment, fees and tax come from the listing and the state’s rules; insurance and gas or charging are our estimates. Your dealer, insurer and driving set the real figures. How we estimate

Confirm every number with the seller or the leasing company before you commit. The Real Lease Cost leaves out registration, wear and tear, and excess miles beyond your target. See how we score.

What a take-over means

You take over someone’s lease. You pay their last 29 months. The months and the miles are theirs, not new ones.

The leasing company must approve you.

  • Model year: 2026.
  • Miles left on the lease: about 27,800, as the listing states them.
  • Transfer fee: about $500 (the listing does not say). Ask the leasing company (the bank that owns the car), not the seller.

How this price compares

Not confirmed, so we do not call it low

At 12,000 miles a year and U.S. average costs, 162 of the other 175 similar luxury small cars we price today cost more than this one.

vs 175 luxury small car deals today, at 12,000 miles and U.S. average costs

This check looks at price only. It cannot say whether the car fits you.

The math behind this

About 93 of every 100 similar luxury small cars we price today cost more than this one. Pool: the live ranked luxury small car deals we read, luxury makes with luxury makes only, each priced at the same miles and costs. A car that is not confirmed counts at its worse number.
