Leasing vs Buying: Frequently Asked Questions at Cherry Hill Nissan
Helping you choose the best option for your next Nissan in Cherry Hill, NJ
Should I lease or buy my next Nissan?
It depends on your lifestyle and goals. Leasing is often better if you want lower monthly payments, always drive a new vehicle, and stay within annual mileage limits. Buying makes more sense if you drive high miles, want to build equity, or plan to keep the vehicle long-term.
What are the main advantages of leasing a Nissan?
Leasing typically offers lower monthly payments, smaller down payment, and the ability to drive the latest Nissan models every 2–4 years. You also stay under factory warranty for the entire lease and can easily upgrade to newer technology and safety features.
What are the benefits of buying instead of leasing?
When you buy, you build equity in the vehicle, have no mileage restrictions, and can keep it as long as you want. There are no end-of-lease decisions or potential fees, and you have more freedom to modify the vehicle.
How does annual mileage affect my decision?
If you drive under 10,000–15,000 miles per year, leasing is often more cost-effective. If you drive significantly more, buying usually saves money by avoiding excess mileage fees at the end of a lease.
Can I buy the vehicle at the end of my lease?
Yes. Most Nissan leases include a purchase option at a predetermined residual value. Our finance team can review this option with you at any time during or at the end of the lease term.
