Hybrid or electric: the ad does not say The ad does not say which one this is. We count it at the dearest of them.

This adds payment, tax, miles, insurance and gas at 12,000 miles a year at U.S. average prices. The receipt adds every cost.

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

New lease Mercedes-Benz USA offers page Powertrain not stated SUV From the carmaker’s own offers page

The carmaker lists this offer on its own offers page. We read that page. We did not confirm it with a dealer.

National offer from the maker's own page; the dealer sets the final price. Tax is not included.

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.

Incentives

  • We did not read any incentive for this offer. That does not mean there is none. Ask the dealer about lease cash, loyalty, military and college graduate offers.

Rule: an incentive counts only when its source says it comes on top of the advertised payment, so nothing is taken off twice. Offers for a group count only when you say you are in it.
