Worried About the 25% Auto Tariffs on New Foreign Vehicles? DreamLease Has You Covered!
Shopping for a luxury or exotic car? With 25% tariffs driving up prices on new imports, leasing could be the smartest way to get behind the wheel without the steep upfront cost.
If you're in the market for a luxury or exotic vehicle, you may have heard about the 25% tariffs on new foreign vehicles. These increased costs can make buying a new imported car significantly more expensive. But before you put your dream car on hold, consider this: leasing may be your best solution. At DreamLease, we specialize in lowering payments on both new and used vehicles, helping you navigate these new economic shifts while still getting behind the wheel of a car you love.
How Higher Tariffs Create Stronger Residual Values
When tariffs increase the cost of new imported vehicles, used vehicle values tend to rise as well. This happens because fewer people can afford new imports, increasing demand for pre-owned models. As a result:
- Stronger residual values mean lower depreciation, making open-end leasing (Where you maintain your relative equity position in the vehicle) an even smarter financial decision.
- With pre-owned vehicles retaining more value, leasing used vehicles offers exceptional cost savings over financing.
- More competitive lease structures emerge, allowing lessees to secure better terms than they would in a traditional purchase.
Why Leasing a Used Vehicle Makes More Sense Than Ever
Leasing used vehicles is our specialty at DreamLease, and in times of rising new car costs, it’s a smarter financial choice for many reasons:
- Lower Monthly Payments – Since used vehicles have already depreciated significantly, lease payments are typically much lower than leasing a new car.
- Avoid Steep New Car Costs – With the additional 25% tariff, new imported cars are now at an all-time high in price. Leasing a pre-owned model lets you enjoy the same luxury at a fraction of the cost.
- Shorter Commitments – All our vehicle leases have flexible terms, allowing you to drive the car you love without a long-term commitment.
Considering a New Vehicle? Leasing Can Still Save You Money
If you still prefer a brand-new vehicle, you can bypass the impact of these tariffs in a few ways:
- Lease New American-Made Vehicles – Domestic brands are not subject to the tariff increase, making them a more cost-effective alternative.
- Take Advantage of Lower Monthly Payments – Even with increased MSRPs, leasing a new foreign vehicle still offers lower monthly payments compared to traditional financing, allowing you to drive what you love with less financial strain.
- Enjoy Tax Benefits – Leasing can provide tax advantages for business owners, further reducing the financial burden of these tariffs.
