Buy vs Lease

Ultimately, the decision between buying and leasing a Genesis SUV or car depends on your personal preferences and financial circumstances. If you value ownership, customization options, and the ability to build equity, auto financing may be the better choice for you. On the other hand, if you prefer lower monthly payments, the opportunity to drive a new luxury car more frequently, and the convenience of manufacturer warranties, leasing a Genesis could be the ideal option. 

Here are a few of the major benefits to both leasing and purchasing or financing a new luxury vehicle.

Advantages of Financing

By choosing to finance your purchase, you gain ownership of the vehicle, granting you freedom to do just about anything you want with it. Furthermore, as an owner, you can sell or trade it in whenever!
When you lease a new vehicle, you will be restricted to a number of miles driven. That's not the case when you take out a car loan. You can choose to drive 1 or 100,000 miles per year.

Another advantage of financing is that there are no excessive wear and tear charges or penalties for minor damages. You can enjoy peace of mind knowing that you have full control over how you maintain and care for your vehicle.
Financing a vehicle allows you to build equity over time. With each payment made, you own a larger portion of the vehicle, which can be beneficial if you plan to keep the car for the long term. If you choose to sell your vehicle, that equity equates to more money in your pocket.
Financing gives you the option to sell or trade in the vehicle whenever you choose, providing you with greater flexibility and control.
Financing a vehicle is a great option for those who love to personalize their cars with accessories or modifications, as there are no restrictions or limitations.

Advantages of Leasing

One of the primary advantages of leasing a vehicle is lower monthly payments compared to financing. Since you are essentially renting the car for a fixed period, you only pay for the depreciation during that time, resulting in more affordable monthly installments.
Leasing also allows you to experience the thrill of driving a brand-new car every few years. As technology advances and new features become available, you have the opportunity to stay up-to-date with the latest models, ensuring you always have access to cutting-edge features and improved safety standards. Leasing can be a great choice for those who prefer to have a new vehicle with the latest innovations without the long-term commitment.
Additionally, leasing typically comes with manufacturer warranties that cover most repairs and maintenance costs, providing you with added peace of mind. When you buy a vehicle, its warranty will eventually expire, and any problems with that vehicle (aside from recalls) will result in out-of-pocket payments for repairs.
Routine maintenance is often simpler with a lease, as the lease term usually coincides with the manufacturer's recommended service intervals, reducing the likelihood of unexpected repair expenses.
Leasing usually requires a lower initial down payment compared to financing, making it a more affordable option for many people.
