Chevrolet Equinox Lease Deal
We’ve worked out how this Costco incentive could be used to create a $296 per month lease deal ($0 down payment, plus taxes and fees) on a 2022 Chevrolet Equinox LS in November 2022:
Discount: With an MSRP of $27,695, you’ll need to target at least a $400 discount for a selling price of $27,295.
Incentives: You’ll need the $1,000 Costco incentive, $1,000 incentive for existing lessees (conquest or loyalty), and $500 Chevy Cyber Cash incentive, for a total of $2,500 in incentives.
Money Factor: You’ll need the Tier 1 “buy rate” money factor of .00130 (equivalent to 3.12% APR) through GM Financial. (Some dealers mark up the money factor for additional profit.)
Term: This is for a 36-month, 10,000 mile per year lease (58% residual value).
Here’s a link to the Leasehackr Calculator with the inputs pre-filled for this 2022 Chevrolet Equinox LS lease, assuming a Southern California sales tax rate and government fees. You can customize the inputs to reflect your circumstances.
Given the current market, we think a $296 per month lease on a 2022 Chevrolet Equinox is a solid deal and a good option for someone seeking a practical, if basic, crossover SUV to drive around.
