Lease vs Buy Calculator
Compare the total cost of leasing vs financing a car
// Lease Pros
Lower monthly payments, drive a newer car more often, warranty coverage, no resale hassle. Ideal if you like switching cars every 3-5 years.
// Buy Pros
You own the asset, no mileage restrictions, freedom to modify, cheaper long-term if you keep the car 7+ years. Builds equity you can sell later.
// Hidden Lease Costs
Watch for mileage penalties (excess km fees), wear-and-tear charges, early termination fees, and balloon payments. Read the fine print carefully.
// SA Market
In South Africa, balloon/residual value financing is common. The residual inflates the effective interest cost. Always negotiate the residual down and consider paying it off early.
