The costs per kilometer are decisive in kilometer leasing, especially if they have to be borne privately. With a monthly leasing rate of 197 €, the VW Golf VIII 2.0 TDI SCR ACTIVE DSG is an absolutely average value vehicle. 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 . 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 106 € per month, a reasonable lump sum considering the gross list price of 39920 €. In the transfer and registration, the dealer of this offer must apparently increased effort, the cost of which is 1250 €.
