A car lease is one of the most popular forms of finance if you’re in the market for a new car. You can think of it as a long-term car rental. You apply to lease a car for a certain period of time and make monthly payments over the duration. The big different between leasing and other forms of finance is that by leasing you essentially rent the car and do not own it. You can read more about car leasing in our guide: 'What is car leasing? A guide to Personal Contract Hire'

How does car leasing work?

You pay a set amount upfront (usually one, three or six-months’ worth of monthly payments) and then make regular monthly payments over a set period (usually two, three or four years). You’ll find both the initial payment and upfront payment is usually less than other forms of finance require. Once the duration of your car lease contract is up, you simply hand the car back to the finance company and are free to choose another lease deal or other form of finance.

How does car leasing differ from a PCP?

Along with car leasing, personal contract purchase (PCP) agreements are a popular form of financing a new car. The main difference between a lease and PCP is that you won’t have to pay a balloon payment at the end of your contract. A PCP on the other hand, gives you the option to pay a large amount of money to keep your vehicle. This is usually equal to the minimum guaranteed future value of the vehicle. Research has shown the vast majority of PCP customers choose not to pay the balloon payment. In these cases, they have essentially leased the car – but often while incurring higher monthly payments and deposits.

Is car leasing for me?

Car lease deals are best for those that want a cost-effective and affordable way to get behind the wheel of a brand-new car. Choosing to lease will often get you a better car for a lower price when compared to other forms of finance. It’s great if you don’t want to keep the car forever and don’t mind handing the car back at the end of the contract. It’s also great if you’ve not a lot of time on your hands – leasing offers a hassle-free new car experience, with vehicles delivered and collected straight from your front door. If you plan on keeping the car forever, leasing probably isn’t for you. Unlike other forms of finance, you’ll rarely get the chance to buy the car outright at the end of your contract. If you don’t mind paying more to own a vehicle long-term, then another form of finance might be a better bet than a car lease deal.

Do I need a good credit score for a car lease?

Yes, you’ll usually require a “good” credit score if you want to lease a car. Some leasing companies offer options for people with lesser credit scores, but options are often more limited, and you may be required to pay a higher monthly payment. You can read more about the credit score required to lease in our guide: 'What credit score do you need to lease a car?'

Can I trade in my current car for a lease car?

This is sometimes possible if you are leasing a car through a main dealer, but it’s often best to sell your existing car first. We’ve teamed up with motorway to make that process as simple as possible for you.

Does car leasing include insurance?

No, while a car leasing rolls several monthly payments into a single package, insurance usually isn’t one of them. You’ll still have to take responsibility for arranging insurance from the day of delivery as insurance is generally not included. It’s also worth noting that a lease car will need to be insured on a fully comprehensive policy. Our lease car insurance guide has further info on insurance queries.

Does car leasing include servicing?

Most lease deals do not include servicing or maintenance as standard, but you can often choose to add a maintenance package into your deal. This covers things like annual servicing and sometimes wear and tear items like tyres too. This can vary depending on the lease deal in question, so it’s always worth asking the lease company and reading the fine print.

Will I be charged for going over my car lease mileage allowance?

All lease deals will give you an option to choose your annual mileage, this could be 5k per annum, 8k per annum, 10k per annum or even 20k per annum. If you go over your limit, at the end of the lease you may be required to pay an excess mileage charge. This is often a few pence per mile. You can always adjust your mileage allowance during your lease though, so flexibility is built in. It’s sensible to calculate your mileage allowance accurately – paying more miles you aren’t covering is just as costly as excess mileage charges for going over the limit.

What documents do I need for car leasing?

To apply for a lease deal, you’ll usually need proof of address, some form of photographic identification along with details of your employment. It’s just like applying for any other financial product. The lease company will use this to perform a credit check and make sure you can afford the payments. You can find more types of documentation that can be used in our guide: What documents do I need to lease a car?

Should you lease a Kia?

Whether it’s a supermini, a sensible family hatchback or a cutting-edge EV, there’s something in the Kia range for everyone. The company has come on leaps and bounds in recent years and now makes some of the most desirable cars on the market. A Kia lease makes sense if you’re looking to save money and roll several monthly costs into a single payment.

What are the most popular Kia models to lease?

The Kia Sportage is the most popular model on Leasing.com thanks to its good looks, practical SUV body and wide choice of drivetrains. Other models making a splash include the Niro crossover, the Ceed range and the stunning EV6 all-electric model.

Which Kia trim levels can I choose from?

Exact Kia trim levels depend on the model in question, but popular choices include GT and GT Line. Even entry-level trims feature things like an impressive infotainment system, the latest safety tech and alloy wheels.

How much does a Kia lease cost?

While Kia has moved on in the design stakes, it has always been known for offering fantastic value – something that still rings true if you choose to lease one. Kia lease monthly payments are often less than like-for-like PCP finance, and your road tax is also rolled into the price so you don’t have to worry about that.

Are there any Kia rivals to consider?

Kia’s sister brand Hyundai offers a similar line-up, while other brands that could be on your shortlist include Peugeot, Nissan and Toyota.
