Leasing vs. Financing a Car: Which Option Is Best for You?

You’ve found the perfect vehicle—maybe it’s an INFINITI that caught your eye—and now it’s time to decide how you want to drive it home. Should you lease it or finance it? Both options have their own unique benefits, and the right answer really depends on your lifestyle, priorities, and plans.

The Appeal of Ownership

Financing is an excellent choice if you’re planning to keep your vehicle for many years. When you finance, every payment you make goes toward full ownership. Once the loan is paid off, the vehicle is yours to keep, trade, or sell. You also have the freedom to customize it as you like and drive as much as you want without worrying about kilometre limits.

Why Leasing Might Be the Better Fit

Leasing offers a different kind of freedom. If you prefer lower monthly payments, enjoy driving the latest models, and love staying under full warranty coverage, then leasing is a smart option. It’s ideal if you like upgrading every few years and want to avoid long-term maintenance costs.

Looking at the Numbers

Monthly lease payments are often significantly lower than loan payments for the same vehicle. In some cases, leasing can cost 30 to 60 percent less per month, making it easier to stay within a set budget, especially if you want to keep your payments around or under $800 per month.
