VW Golf VIII 1.5 eTSI Life DSG Total cost & lease factor

Calculation basis

With a lease rate of 422.45 € per month for a term of 48 months, the VW Golf offer is a rather expensive one. Can it still be a leasing deal? The decisive factor here 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 5915 €, the dealer makes here again a neat surcharge. Dividing the total costs (leasing costs + fixed costs = 26192.6 €) by the number of months (for this offer: 48 months) gives the monthly effective costs. If you then divide this amount by the gross list price of 51267 €, you get the leasing factor. This VW Golf gives an effective leasing factor of 1.06, so it's a rather expensive leased vehicle. A leasing comparison with other deals is worthwhile.

VW Golf VIII 1.5 eTSI Life DSG Cost per kilometer

Calculation basis

The costs per kilometer are decisive in kilometer leasing, especially if they have to be borne privately. With a monthly leasing rate of 422.45 €, the VW Golf VIII 1.5 eTSI Life DSG 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 48 months at the most favorable lease price . With the VW Golf, the monthly vehicle tax is very low at 8 €. The cost of operating the vehicle, powered by a hybrid engine, i.e. the fuel and electricity costs. are average 120 € monthly. Added to this are insurance costs of 88 € per month, which is basically a moderate cost considering the gross list price of 51267 €. In the transfer and registration, the dealer of this offer must apparently increased effort, the cost of which is 5915 €. The final assessment of this offer: Due to the high cost per kilometer in the amount of 0.65 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 (10000 km multiplied by the term 48 months).
