Frequently asked questions
Quick answers to the questions buyers usually ask once the category, software, or rollout details start getting more specific.
No. It's a structured starting point, not a finished contract or legal advice. Lease law varies by jurisdiction and the right terms depend on your specific arrangement. Have a qualified attorney review and adapt it before anyone signs.
In a closed-end lease the residual value risk sits with the lessor — you return the vehicle and walk away (subject to wear/mileage charges). In an open-end lease the lessee bears the gap between the vehicle's actual and estimated end value. Commercial fleet leases are often open-end; confirm which structure you're using and reflect it in the terms.
Lessors typically require the lessee to carry specified coverage and name the lessor as an additional insured or loss payee. The exact requirements belong in the agreement and should be confirmed with your insurer and counsel.
Set it to the realistic annual mileage for the vehicle's role, with a clear excess-mileage rate. Underestimating leads to large end-of-lease charges; overestimating raises the payment. Base it on your historical mileage data.
