Find out the monthly maintenance cost for one smart fortwo 453 coupe EQ with tax, running costs, insurance and workshop costs. If you would like to lease a smart fortwo 453 coupe EQ, you may need to consider not only the monthly lease fee, but also the other costs incurred. For this offer, for example, transfer costs in the amount of 690 €. With a lease term of 36 months and a monthly lease payment of 179 € with 5000 km mileage per year, there are fixed leasing costs of 11634 €. Insurance costs for the smart fortwo 453 coupe EQ are quite reasonable at around 35 € per month, especially for drivers with a high no-claims class. The low depreciation of 177 € / month (for use over 5 years) for the smart fortwo 453 coupe EQ is not a factor in mileage leasing, but is an advantage in residual value leasing. On average, the smart fortwo 453 coupe EQ trades for 22540 €, the offered vehicle has a gross list price of 21939 €.
The leasing rate is 179 € per month with a term of 36 months, so the offer is basically cheap to begin with. But is this smart fortwo a leasing deal? The decisive factor is the leasing factor, which is calculated by dividing the leasing rate by the gross list price.
To the monthly leasing rate must also be added the additional costs, such as transfer and registration. With 5190 €, the dealer makes here again a neat surcharge. Dividing the total costs (leasing costs + fixed costs = 11634 €) by the number of months (for this offer: 36 months) gives the monthly effective costs. If you then divide this amount by the gross list price of 21939 €, you get the leasing factor. This smart fortwo results in an effective leasing factor of 1.47, so it is an expensive leased vehicle. We recommend a leasing comparison with cheaper deals.

The costs per kilometer are decisive in kilometer leasing, especially if they have to be borne privately. With a monthly leasing rate of 179 €, the smart fortwo 453 coupe EQ is already somewhat expensive anyway. When calculating the costs per kilometer, however, a distinction should still be made between a rather short leasing period (2 - 3 years) and a longer one (4 - 6 years). For simplicity, we ignore this difference in the following calculation example and assume a lease term of 36 months at the most favorable lease price . The cost of operating the vehicle, an electric car, so the cost of electricity, amount to just 99 € monthly, as the vehicle is very economical. In addition, there are insurance costs of 35 € per month, which is quite a low amount but of course mainly due to the low gross list price (21939 €) and the vehicle size. In the transfer and registration, the dealer of this offer must apparently increased effort, the cost of which is 5190 €. The final assessment of this offer: Due to the high cost per kilometer in the amount of 0.78 EUR, and the high effective leasing factor, we can unfortunately not make a recommendation for this offer.
The previous costs are now summed and divided by the number of inclusive kilometers (5000 km multiplied by the term 36 months).
