The costs per kilometer are decisive in kilometer leasing, especially if they have to be borne privately. The smart forfour 453 EQ edition one, with a monthly leasing rate of 129 €, is already a rather inexpensive car. 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 104 € monthly, as the vehicle is very economical. In addition, there are insurance costs of 55 € per month, which is quite a low amount but of course mainly due to the low gross list price (14500 €) and the vehicle size. The total invoice for this offer also includes the transfer and registration costs in the amount of 595 € (one-time). The final assessment of this offer: average cost per kilometer (0.17 €) is joined by an average effective leasing factor of 1 - not a real deal, but not a bad offer either.
The previous costs are now summed and divided by the number of inclusive kilometers (10000 km multiplied by the term 36 months).
