I am a serial entrepreneur and a consumer advocate. When I’m not helping car buyers, I love working on ventures that have a positive impact.
I run a cause marketing agency and serve on the board of Vayu Global Health where we are disrupting the medical industry and preventing the needless deaths of mothers and babies during childbirth.
Many manufacturers are offering lease deals and incentives this month on 2022 and 2023 models for all different types of vehicles.
We've compiled all the current lease offers for this month and made our top picks for each category.
Let's break down these offers by category and highlight some of the best lease deals right now.
Editor's Note: I would expect better deals for the year end holidays, but the market still seems to be adjusting.
However, the one manufacturer worth calling out, is Volkswagen, they are one of the few manufacturers that offer true zero down lease specials.
We're also seeing a lot of lease deals come out for 2024 models right now.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you lease without a down payment?
Yes, some car brands advertise zero down leases. Here’s the full list of zero down offers right now.
Even if it’s not advertised, some dealers make the down payment optional if you meet their credit requirements. Keep in mind that a zero down lease will raise your monthly payment since you are not pre-paying some of the lease obligation.
Is it cheaper to buy or lease a car?
Monthly payments are cheaper when leasing a car. But if you buy and keep a car after it’s paid off, it’s cheaper in the long run. Here are some of the cheapest lease offers with monthly payments under $200.
Does leasing a car build credit?
Yes, leasing a car builds credits in the same way that buying a car does. You just need to show a history of paying in full and on time.
What credit score do I need to lease a car?
With some exceptions, the typical minimum credit score to lease a car is 620. However, unless your credit score is over 680, you will not qualify for the best lease deals.
What is capitalized cost in a car lease?
Capitalized cost is the total amount being financed with a lease. This is the price of the vehicle and all associated fees, minus whatever you pay in cash for your down payment and your trade-in.
What is the money factor in a car lease?
The money factor is the financing rate on a lease, similar to interest paid on a loan, but expressed a little differently. The lower the money factor, the less your monthly payment will be.
Is it better to buy or lease a car?
Leasing a car does result in lower monthly car payments. But for most car buyers, it makes more financial sense to buy a car outright than to lease. The exceptions are if you are deducting the car as a business expense or you want to replace your car every 2-3 years. Learn more about the reasons to buy or lease a car.
Why do dealers want you to lease?
Dealers love to offer leases because they will make more profit than a typical car sale. And consumers are less likely to negotiate a lease due to seemingly low payments and confusing financial terms like money factor and capitalized cost.
