Possibly dumb question: how volatile are these numbers?
By which I mean do they change quarterly, monthly? Or are they unscheduled at all and just change w/out notice?
If there is a better place to ask that question please let me know!
For some reason, the current Kia programs are set to expire on 7/5. But, that doesn't mean they couldn't change before then.

I'm not a moderator but the MF you got from the moderator is equivalent to over an 8% interest rate. Other Kia leases have a MF that translates to just over 5%. I'd be shocked if Kia raises it even if the Fed hikes interest rates unless the EV6 still has an inventory shortage.

I am the moderator, and I can tell you that nobody - not even the dealer - knows what the future programs look like. Trying to predict the numbers is like trying to time the stock market.
And, there are plenty of lease programs out there where the effective interest rate is higher than 8%.

Of course nobody can predict the future programs but you can look at previous economic downturns and what happened in the car market to take an educated guess of where things are headed. If sales fall and inventory levels rise then I expect leases to become less expensive whether that's through lower money factors, lease cash and/or discounts off of MSRP.
Last year automakers didn't need to offer low money factors or other lease incentives because there wasn't much inventory and dealers were able to sell whatever they had at or above MSRP. Now that's changing for some brands. When automakers want to increase sales they tend to offer incentives or promotional financing rates on purchases and leases.

But ... if it costs more for Kia Motors Finance to borrow the money to lend to customers, they will still have to make a profit on that, so I wouldn't expect the MF to drop due to higher inventory or lower demand.
Yes, they can offer incentives, which may happen. I think we've lived with cheap money for so long, nobody knows how to deal with the higher interest rates we've been seeing.

I agree that prior to the past year we had cheap money for so long that nobody had to deal with higher interest rates so it will be interesting to see how the manufacturers deal with it. I checked the special financing pages of a few manufacturers and Nissan has 2.99% APR, Honda has 3.9% APR and Toyota has 3.99% APR on some models which are all lower than the current Fed funds rate so it's possible that Kia could do the same.
I've also been watching the MF on the Kia Carnival and recently that's been between 0.00228 and 0.00237 on 36 month leases depending on trim which translates to between 5.5% and 5.7% APR so Kia is currently offering lower MF on other models.

And minivans are less popular than EVs....
The low APRs (I saw a commercial today for one brand at 0%), are for shorter terms (36-48 months)

Why are minivans being less popular than EVs relevant to my point? I simply gave an example of a Kia model thay has a lower MF which means they could offer lower MF on the EV6. Regardless, special APRs and inventives are designed to increase demand when supply is higher than demand.
Also, the EV6 competes with the Tesla Model Y and with Tesla lowering prices and being eligible for the $7500 federal tax credit on both leases and purchases (the EV6 only gets it on leases), Kia will have to do something to make the EV6 more price competitive with the Model Y, especially after supply catches up with demand.

Less desirable vehicles often have lower MF, which proves your point about supply and demand.
I agree on the second point regarding Tesla. Will be interesting to see how the EV market shakes out when (if?) supply exceeds demand.

At this point, Kia's May numbers are scheduled to run through June, as well. But, typically, new programs come out, each month.

You're most likely not going to get a good deal on the EV6 right now. I believe supply is low and demand is high. That MF is equivalent to a 9.12% interest rate - which is terrible. Residual of 58% or $32k means the MSRP must be around $55,172. How many miles a year lease?
The following info from your deal is confusing me.
Lease cash 7500
CCR 10000
Customer down 5k
Drive off 12500
CCR is cap cost reduction which is usually the lease cash (i.e. incentives) plus the down payment so I don't understand why the CCR is 10000 and not 12500. Also, I'm not sure how they came up with the drive off amount. It looks like they added the lease cash and down payment together to come up with it. But my understanding is the drive off should be your down payment plus any fees that you're paying up front such as the DMV fees, bank fee, etc.
Regardless, the MF looks slightly marked up based on the postings I've seen here from the moderators and someone else said it's over 9% interest rate. The only number you can typically negotiate in a lease is the selling price also known as the capitalized cost that's used in the lease payment calculation. Of course lately getting prices below MSRP has been difficult the past few years. The residual value is the MSRP multiplied by the residual percentage of 58%. You decide how much you want to put down to make the monthly payment lower. Usually I put zero down and roll the fees into the lease because if the car is totalled or stolen in a lease, you don't get the down payment money back from the insurance payout since you're not the legal owner of the car, the leasing company is.

CCR, I believe 7500 + dealer discount of 2500.
Drive off I believe- 7500 (from Kia) + Down payment 5000
Yes, i was thinking a goodwill downpayment of 5k might entice them to give better terms.
Total with fees 56350
Adj Cap cost 46314
$7500 lease cash
As noted, the MF is marked up from the base rate.
With the prices given, I get $673/mo with the base MF, before tax. $703/mo, pre-tax, with the marked up MF.

@Michaell Do you happen to know what the Kia Finance bank fee is on leases? Does it vary by state or zip code?
