Lease vs buy
Making the right choice for your business.
Are you torn between leasing and buying the vehicles for your fleet? At Ayvens, we understand that the decision can be challenging, and it all comes down to your priorities. Let's delve into the key differences between leasing and buying to help you make an informed choice.
Leasing or buying
When it comes to acquiring a new vehicle, you have two primary options: leasing and buying. Let's explore the key differences between these choices.
- Initial costs
Leasing Leasing typically requires minimal upfront costs, and you can often choose whether to make a downpayment, making it easier on your wallet.
Buying When buying a car, you must pay upfront or take out a loan, which can involve higher initial costs.
- Financial predictability
Leasing Leasing offers financial predictability with fixed monthly payments, including maintenance and services, so you can budget effectively without unexpected expenses.
Buying Owning a car can come with unpredictable maintenance and repair costs, which may not be included in your budget.
- Flexibility
Leasing Leasing provides the flexibility of choosing your lease duration and mileage, aligning your contract with your driving needs and preferences.
Buying While you can sell your car at any time, you may face depreciation costs, and selling is not as predictable as ending a lease.
- Option to upgrade to newer models
Leasing With leasing, you have the option to upgrade to newer models more frequently, often every few years, so you will always have a new car with the latest automotive technology.
Buying When buying a car, upgrading to a newer model typically involves selling your current vehicle, which can be less frequent and more time-consuming.
- Day to day ease of use
Leasing Leasing is a one-stop shop, and Ayvens manages all aspects of your car, from insurance to maintenance, providing a hassle-free experience. With Ayvens you do the driving and we do the rest.
Buying When buying, you may need to coordinate various services with different providers, leading to more time spent on managing your car and its services.
