The leasing rate is 159 € per month with a term of 36 months, so the offer is basically cheap to begin with. But is this VW Golf a leasing deal? The decisive factor is the leasing factor, which is calculated by dividing the leasing rate by the gross list price.

The costs per kilometer are decisive in kilometer leasing, especially if they have to be borne privately. The VW Golf VIII Variant 2.0 TDI SCR Life DSG, with a monthly leasing rate of 159 €, 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 . 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 97 € monthly, as the vehicle is very economical. Added to this are insurance costs of 97 € per month, which is basically a moderate cost considering the gross list price of 32489 €. In the transfer and registration, the dealer of this offer must apparently increased effort, the cost of which is 1590 €. The final assessment of this offer: this offer can be accepted with a clear conscience at a cost per kilometer of 0.24 € and the effective leasing factor of 0.88.
The previous costs are now summed and divided by the number of inclusive kilometers (10000 km multiplied by the term 36 months).
