Car lease vs. buy calculator

Should you lease or buy a car? Some say that if you lease, you will have to return the car at the end of the lease term and be left with nothing. However, they forget that you could invest the money you would pay upfront for the car if you bought it. This calculator will help you figure out which strategy could leave you with more money in your pocket. Please remember that the calculation assumes you would buy the car outright rather than finance it.

The app offers some hints and explanations - the terms in blue are clickable.
