Yes, absolutely. If you're interested in leasing a Subaru, your trade-in value can be applied to reduce your capitalized cost and lower your monthly lease payments. It works similarly to a purchase: we appraise your vehicle, and that equity goes toward making your lease more affordable.

Leasing can be a great option if you love driving a new Subaru every few years without the long-term commitment of ownership. Our finance team will explain how your specific trade-in value affects your lease terms-down payment, monthly payment, and total cost. Let's explore what works best for you.
