Frequently Asked Questions

How is lease mileage overage calculated?

Dealers multiply the number of miles driven beyond your total lease allowance by a fixed per-mile fee, typically $0.10 to $0.30.

Can I negotiate mileage overage fees?

Some leasing companies allow you to buy extra miles upfront at a discount compared to the end-of-lease penalty rate.

What if I drive less than my allowance?

Unused miles are typically not refunded, so it's best to choose an allowance close to your actual driving needs.
