    When I try to use the edmunds calculator to recreate the lease offer Hyundai currently has on the Tuscon, I can't get the same numbers. I am putting in a money factor of 0.0018 and a residual value of 11850 (57%) but I get a monthly payment of $280. The offer is a payment of $239. How does that work?

    Here is the offer from their website:

    Lease a 2010 Hyundai Tucson 2.4 GLS FWD A/T for $239/month for 36 months, $2,499 due at lease signing ($2,260 customer cash down plus $239 for 1st month payment).

    MSRP of $20,790.00 for 2010 Tucson (model #83402) including freight. Lease payment based on capitalized cost of $18,612.63. No security deposit required. Tax, license, title, fees, options and insurance extra. Monthly payments include $595 acquisition fee. Tucson closed-end lease offered through Hyundai Motor Finance (HMF). Subject to HMF credit guidelines. Not all lessees will qualify for lowest payment. Some payments higher, some lower based on residency and other factors. Lessee responsible for excess wear and mileage over 36,000 at $0.20/mile. Purchase option at lease end price negotiated at signing plus applicable tax. Residency restrictions apply. Dealer price may vary. See participating dealer for details.

    I'd check the math... my quick, rounded off calculations give me within $2 of the $239/mo. number.

    My wife is in the market for a new vehicle and has the 2011 Hyundai Tucson on her list ... Looking for the residual & mf for 36/month, 12k miles/year for both the GLS and the LIMITED FWD ... is the 24-month lease any different? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    Hello pikeymikey. Here's the information that you're looking for.

    Hyundai Finance's current buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2010 Tucson GLS FWD with 12,000 miles per year are .00132 and 55%, respectively.

    The numbers for an otherwise identical lease of a 2010 Tucson Limited FWD are .00208 and 56%, respectively.

    I don't believe that Hyundai is currently offering support on 24 month leases of this truck. I don't believe that it has a lease program on the '11 Tucson yet either.

    edited August 2010
    I’m always confused about the negotiation process when I’m leasing a vehicle through a manufacturers promotion program. I received an online quote from a Hyundai dealer in Miami for a Hyundai Tucson GLS with automatic and the popular equipment package.

    The quote is as follows:
    2011 Hyundai Tucson GLS
    36 months lease
    15k a year
    $259.00 plus tax a month with $2499 due at signing
    Residual Value for Hyundai Tucson GLS after 36 months is 58%
    Money factor (Based on approved credit) 0.00173
    Price of the vehicle $23,025.00

    Since this is a “special promotion” does it pay to negotiate the price of the car down or will that negate the promotional offer? Normally I would not consider paying a price this high for the vehicle. Or is the price of the car irrelevant because the manufacturer and it’s finance arm are giving me something either in the residual value or money factor instead?

    miamicrv1,

    National/local promo Ads are just that... advertisements. The selling price is always negotiable whether you lease or buy. Research Edmund's for invoice pricing as well as cash incentives. Also, visit overstock at zag.com for competitive low pricing in your area.

    John
  • miamicrv1miamicrv1 Member Posts: 66
    delta....thanks for the reply....what your suggesting then is, if I negotiate a lower price that doesn't necessarily make me ineligible for what looks likes an attractive residual and decent interest rate.
    My confusion is, the dealer comes back at me with a: " this is the promo, you have to accept the price of the car as is and if not then you are only eligible for a non-promo lease" which might have less attractive terms.

    miamicrv1,

    You do not have to accept the selling price embedded in any lease promo Ad to get the benefits of the promotion. The benefits usually include an artifcially inflated residual value and the lowest money factor offered by the fund provider for those with outstanding credit. Both translate to lower monthly payments. In fact, I read promo Ads with the sole purpose of extracting useful information (e.g., acquisition fee, residual, money factor, etc). Then, I use that information, after thoroughly researching the selling price/money factor/residual/fees, to construct a one-page lease proposal. This puts me in the driver's seat (no pun intended) so that I'm in control of the deal; not the dealer. I never allow a dealer to "run numbers" or control the deal. I couldn't care less what they're offering in terms of a payment and have zero interest in seeing their invoice sheet or their numbers.

    Once I've completed my lease proposal, I email it to dealer and negotiate via phone/email from my home. I have my lease calculation program fired up and ready to rumble. The only thing I'm likely to negotiate in my proposal is the selling price which only requires a few keystrokes. And, bing-bang-boom; I'm done!

    When negotiations have been finalized, then the dealer takes the numbers in my proposal and transfers them to the lease agreement. I ask the dealer to please have the keys ready and the contract ready to sign. Everything takes about 30 minutes and away I go!

    I go to a dealership for three reasons:

    (1) Test drive, if necessary
    (2) Sign papers (30 minutes)
    (3) Maintenance Service

    That's all there is to it!

    Could you please provide lease rates for the 2010 Hyundai Tucson GLS trim and 2011 Tucson GL trim levels.

    Thanks in advance!
  • cimicimi Member Posts: 2
    Ok, so this is after the fact and maybe I should just leave well enough alone, BUT, I guess it's just human nature to questions the deal I got. Leased a 2011 GLS with automatic trans. and really no other options other than mats and cargo tray (which I think is very cool to have). $245/36 mo. with $2300 down which did NOT include the first month payment or dvm fees. which were an additional $245. + 207. respectively. Carman, I think I did ok...the sales manager made it sound like it was an outstanding deal (due to the fact that the first saleman was letting us leave so the Manager was "teaching that salesman a lesson" by doing everything possible to make us happy)...or do I need to do more research next time.

    A few more facts of the deal:
    MSRP 22,840
    Gross cap cost 21,270
    Adjusted cap cost 19,996

    Much thanks in advance.

    John,
    Your post was so helpful - especially to a person who dreads the negotiation process and the back and forth of waiting for "running the numbers."

    Would it be possible for you to post an example of the lease proposal you send/fax? I think this is the most convenient, efficient, and stress-free way to lease/buy a vehicle and i appreciate any help you can give since so many salespeople are apprehensive to give numbers over the phone or via email.

    Thanks!
  • delta737hdelta737h Member Posts: 626
    seeingred,

    You need to INSIST that they give you a copy of their LEASE WORKSHEET. There is absolutely no reason whatsoever for them not to give it to you. If they don't, then refuse to do business with them. This is a computer genertated document that contains all pertinent information and will tell you everything you need to know and then some.

    You can email it to me at...

    diffeq@zoominternet.net

    and I'll be happy to evaluate it for you as well as send you sample lease proposals.

    I drove this car yesterday and really like it. I am interested in leasing and plan to negotiate via email to not waste any time sitting in the dealership "running numbers." I am also going to request the lease worksheet as suggested by John. I would like to be as prepared as possible.

    TrueCar.com has also helped by showing what people are paying for the same car in the local area.

    Can I have the residual and money factor for a 2011 Tucson:

    GLS FWD w/ Nav package, 15k mi, for 36 mo lease
    &
    GLS FWD, 15k mi, for 36 mo lease

    Can anyone else give me an idea of what their montly payments are? I do not intend to put anything additional down.

    Thanks so much!

    Hello seeingred56. Hyundai Finance's January buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2011 Tucson GLS FWD with Navigation and 15,000 miles per year are .00156 and 56%, respectively.

    The inclusion of navigation has no impact upon this truck's lease program.

    I would be happy to work up a sample payment on the exact truck that you are interested in for you if you provide me with its MSRP and approximate selling price.

    Hi Car_Man,

    Thanks so much for your help. We are just in the process of dealing with some salespeople. I would greatly appreciate your crunching the numbers below:

    MSRP- $25,210
    Selling price - $23,500
    NJ

    I am getting extremely high quotes from dealers regarding monthly payments. My current vehicle's selling price was at least $2,500 more and I am paying at least $30 less per month with the same specs.

    Any help would be great.
  • CarMan@EdmundsCarMan@Edmunds Member Posts: 38,514
    Hi seeingred56. Let's work up a payment on this truck and see what we come up with. According to my calculations, if you were to lease a 2011 Tucson GLS FWD with Navigation and 15,000 miles per year ($25,210 MSRP / $23,500 Selling Price) through Hyundai Finance right now for 36 months with 15,000 miles per year its zero down, pre-tax monthly payment would be around $320.

    Car_man and others,
    This forum is a BIG help to us rookies, and I really appreciate your advice. Lots of great info here.

    I have read all the previous comments, So i think I have a good idea of the landscape, but here's my personal situation.

    Like the above person, I am interested in a 2011 Tucson GLS (still debating on the navigation package).

    I'm looking to put down about $2000-2500, and am looking at a 36 month lease. 12,000 miles may be fine, but probably looking at 13,000 or even 15,000.

    I am pretty confident I will be approved at the best credit/interest rates.

    What kind of monthly payments am I looking at? (I'm in CA if that matters for tax purposes - 8.25%)

    Again, thanks for all your help!

    You are the best at crunching numbers..can you crunch a few for myself and my wife through

    Hyundai Finance - 36 months/15,000 miles year - we have a trade in: 2003 Santa Fe GLS AWD in fair condition (thinking we could get $2,500 from dealer - although KBB is around $3,775)

    2011 Hyunda Tuscon GLS AWD
    MSRP = $24,4780...SELLING PRICE = $23384

    Greatly apreciate it!
    Eric
  • g6leaserg6leaser Member Posts: 160
    I was quoted from the dealer the following: this was based on MSRP = $24,4780...SELLING PRICE = $23384

    the money factor is .00156 the residual % is 57. A 45,000 mile 36 month lease with 0 downpayment is 358 per month. GAP is included

    I then asked the sales mgr via email (notice he didn't give me any answers to the question - is that normal?):
    How much is the GAP insurance? How much are the additional fees such as acquisition, registration, inspection, tax?

    Would you require first months' down payment, etc. Thank you in advance for answering all of my questions.

    Here is his response below - should I walk away?

    Eric, as discussed GAP is included / standard on the Hyundai Lease.

    Normal up front fees are required and the lease is calculated with 0 cap cost reduction AKA :0 downpayment.

    I appreciate that you are working things out to this point before stopping into the dealership.

    At this point I invite you in to have a courteous, professional discussion, to review your inception fees, to demonstrate the vehicle, and to show you why

    People choose Flemington Hyundai.

    Yes the lease is based on $23,384 as the price.

    You would be better off having the dealer cut you a check for any equity that you have in your trade rather than using the proceeds from it as a down payment on your lease, but if you really wanted to make a $2,500 capitalized cost reduction on this lease it would drop the payment to around $247.

    Hi Car_Man,

    I was hoping you might be able to help me out with the residual value and money factor for a 3yr, 12k miles per year, lease of a 2011 Hyundai Tucson GLS.

    Also, what did you mean by saying that you're better off having the dealer cut a check for the equity in your trade instead of using it as a down payment? I have a car I plan to possibly trade in, but wasn't sure the best route to go. I could negotiate a trade in price with the dealer to reduce the cap cost or work as a down payment, or I could have carmax buy it outright and then either use the cash for the new lease as a down payment or just keep the cash for other uses (we're pregnant with our first child, so we'll have plenty of other uses).

    Any help/advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
  • swj66swj66 Member Posts: 3
    Sorry, I forgot one other question... Does Hyundai ever offer a 10K miles per year lease? And if so, does the money factor and residual change for that?

    I work from home and know I will be coming in way under in my mileage, so it would be nice if I could get a better deal because of it. Thanks again!
  • CarMan@EdmundsCarMan@Edmunds Member Posts: 38,514
    Hi swj66. Hyundai Finance's April buy rate lease money factor and residual value for a 36 month lease of a 2011 Tucson GLS AWD with 12,000 miles per year are .00156 and 58%, respectively for consumers who qualify for its top credit tier.

    You can and should have either the dealer that you are working with or CarMax cut you a check for your trade rather than using the proceeds from it as a capitalized cost reduction for your lease. Consumers who make large down payments on leased vehicles risk losing part or all of them if their vehicle is totaled in an accident or stolen and never recovered.

    I'm not sure if Hyundai Finance offers leases with only 10,000 miles per year, but if it does its residual value for that allowance would likely be 1% higher.

    Hello everyone and thanks for all your awesome posts on this forum. We're looking to lease two Hyundais at the same time (good timing!). My fiance' likes the Tucson GLS FWD with no additional options, 15,000 miles a year and 36 month lease. Does anyone have any figures on this either from a purchasing experience or from the big man Car_man some numbers we can crunch?
  • pinksnyperpinksnyper Member Posts: 75
    I'm surprised that the money factor on the Tucson makes the lease payments for the less expensive GLS over $60 more than the Sonata 2.0t SE, a vehicle which costs more. Our lease payments for 15,000/36mo with $1,700 down would come out to $337 for the Tucson. sounds crazy a bit...May be a dealer breaker.
  • pinksnyperpinksnyper Member Posts: 75
    Here's my first attempt at getting a deal on the Tucson. Any thoughts? Do these calculations add up?

    Sales price: $21,848 (lease rebate of $500)

    residual: $13,053.60
    money factor: .00168
    $1630 down (tax paid upfront in NJ)
    36months - $337
    15K lease

    Car_Man,

    I am trying to lease a new Tucson Limited with Premium package either FWD or AWD. The dealer offered me .00232 and 55% residual, whereas you told swj66 the Hyundai rate for April for a GLS is .00156 and 58% residual.

    Are the numbers different for a GLS and a Limited? Can you please tell me the correct Hyundai rate for a Tucson Limited 36 month 12,000 miles per year lease if I do the deal in the next couple of days.

    Thanks.

    Paul
