Car Leasing is Often Not Well Understood, Even Greatly Misunderstood
Leasing is nothing more than a method of paying for the use of a car, truck, SUV, or van over a specified period of time. Sounds like renting, but don't get the two confused because they are very different. While you can rent a car for as little as a day, or even a few hours, leasing typically starts at 24 months and doesn't provide for easy termination or vehicle swapping.
Leasing is a form of vehicle financing; renting is not. Automobile leasing is not the same as apartment leasing. Leasing is not a dealer scam. It is a long-time well-respected form of business financing for motor vehicles, construction equipment, buildings, and ships. However, automobile leasing for general consumers only became popular in the 1980s as people began to look for more affordable ways to acquire the new cars they wanted.
