Volkswagen offers many outstanding options for loyal customers around Pasadena MD interested in a new vehicle. The Tiguan, Jetta, Golf, and Atlas represent some choices for new models. Besides variety in styles, Volkswagen offers options for shoppers. At Fitzgerald Volkswagen of Annapolis near Laurel MD, customers could select between buying or leasing. Choose the one best for you and your needs. Buying and Leasing Similarities Shoppers should realize that some steps with leasing are identical to ones common when purchasing. Putting a down payment before taking out a lease is usually required. The greater the down payment, the lower the monthly premium. With leasing, the monthly payments cover a set lease term. Usually, the term runs from two to three years. When buying a Volkswagen, the premiums could last as much as 60 months, or the shopper may choose to pay the vehicle off ahead of schedule. When buying, the end goal involves owning the VW. Benefits with Leasing Leases appeal to Washington DC shoppers interested in upgrading to a new model relatively quickly. When a two-year term ends, the lessee returns the VW and can lease another model. With each new vehicle comes the latest features and upgrades, which may be a plus to shoppers. Returning a leased Volkswagen comes with another benefit some drivers appreciate. Returns eliminate the need to sell or trade-in a model. Benefits of Buying a Volkswagen When purchasing a vehicle, there is no mileage limit per year. With leases, a monthly maximum mileage allotment exists. Anything over the allowed mileage leads to overage fees. Additionally, leases pay for depreciation. Any damage to the vehicle might come with repair costs. Buyers around Baltimore might not want to upgrade too quickly. Anyone interested in the long-term ownership of a Volkswagen would gravitate towards purchasing one. Ask about Finance Please contact our team with questions about financing. We encourage shoppers to finance with us.
