The costs per kilometer are decisive in kilometer leasing, especially if they have to be borne privately. The VW Golf VIII 2.0 TDI SCR ACTIVE DSG, with a monthly leasing rate of 175 €, 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 42 months at the most favorable lease price . For the VW Golf the monthly vehicle tax is rather high at 20 Euro. The cost of operating the vehicle, a combustion engine, i.e. the cost of fuel (and for diesel additionally Adblue). amount to just 96 € monthly, as the vehicle is very economical. Added to this are insurance costs of 88 € per month, which is basically a moderate cost considering the gross list price of 32620 €. A plus point with this offer: the transfer and registration costs are a slim 139 € ( one-time). The final assessment of this offer: this offer can be accepted with a clear conscience at a cost per kilometer of 0.21 € and the effective leasing factor of 0.78.
The previous costs are now summed and divided by the number of inclusive kilometers (10000 km multiplied by the term 42 months).
