Holy Moly! Mazda is Offering 0.02% APR on Mazda CX-9 Leases

The Federal Reserve may have hiked interest rates again, but for November 2022, Mazda is offering a lease money factor of .00001 on their 2022 and 2023 CX-9 Grand Touring SUV — equivalent to 0.02% APR!

This is an example of a supported or “subvented” lease program, where the manufacturer subsidizes leases with below-market interest rates, inflated residual values, and/or lease cash incentives, to lower the cost of leasing and boost sales.

In the case of this CX-9, you’ll pay virtually zero interest when leasing it. Nearly the entirety of your payment will go towards the depreciation expense, making it almost a no-brainer to go with the lease option, if you’re in the market for a new CX-9.

Mazda has set the residual value of 2023 CX-9 Grand Touring at 70% of MSRP after 24 months, at 12,000 miles per year. If your vehicle is worth more than that at lease-end, you may be able to sell the car and cash out on lease equity. Conversely, if its value drops more than that, then you’ll be protected from actual depreciation — a win-win of this lease, in our view.
