Buy vs Lease in Chicago, IL
Whether this is your first time acquiring a vehicle or you’re a seasoned veteran, it’s crucial that you understand the different paths you can take to secure your prospective ride. To help you proceed with absolute confidence, we at Evergreen Kia are here to go over the differences between buying and leasing your next set of wheels. When you’re ready to take the plunge, drop by our Finance Department to speak with an expert advisor about our competitive contracts!
Inventory
Half of the battle of the automotive purchasing process is finding the right set of wheels for your daily driving endeavors. Fortunately, we make that process a breeze by allowing you to sort through our vehicles at your own pace right from home! To start, select your preferred category from the New Vehicles dropdown to redirect to a screen that allows you to peruse at your leisure. After you use the Narrow Your Search tool to refine to your tastes, delve into our virtual showroom experience by reading detailed specifications and looking through photo galleries. If you still can’t decide between two driving options, you can use the Compare tool to see how they stack up in a head-to-head comparison. Don’t forget to sign up for Price Drop Alerts while you’re here, so you can stay current with the latest deals!
Buy
Let’s start by going over the more traditional route toward acquiring the set of keys to your potential vehicle. Otherwise known as financing, buying allows you to achieve full ownership of the model you’re considering after you make your final payment. We accomplish this by splitting up the full cost of the model over a four- to seven-year period, so you can slowly chip away at the sticker price without breaking the bank. To receive the green light for your loan, feel free to complete the Get Pre-Approved form in three simple steps. We won’t ask for your social security number or date of birth, and this tool will not impact your credit score. Once that’s done, you can fill out the secure Finance Application and send it over to our representatives. Once we receive your submission, we’ll get in touch with our trusted network of lenders to find a package that makes sense for you. Bear in mind, if you’re considering a pre-owned model, this will be the only type of contract you opt for.
Leasing
On the other side of the fence, leasing has grown in popularity over the last few years, since it allows drivers to stay current with the latest and greatest automotive advancements. That’s because you’ll basically be borrowing the new Kia from us for an average of three years. Since you won’t be paying toward ownership, you’ll only be on the hook for the vehicle’s expected depreciation while it’s in your driving arsenal. You’ll also be able to determine how much your monthly installment is, because it’s heavily dependent on your annual mileage. Best of all, you’ll have three paths to choose from once your term expires. These include upgrading to a brand-new ride, keeping the vehicle for good, or returning the vehicle to explore different options. The choice is ultimately up to you!
When you’re ready to decide whether you’d like to buy vs lease in Chicago, IL, head to Evergreen Kia at your earliest convenience! We look forward to meeting you.
