What cars were you leasing for $167/mo?

Several budget brands have leases this cheap. Hyundai, Kia, and Honda all come to mind. I'm pretty sure just the other week I saw a car lot commercial offering somewhere in the ballpark of this amount for a Kia.

You can lease a Nissan Leaf for like $100 a month.

  I'm seeing US$159-$199/month. https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1129864_nissan-leaf-lease-deal-tops-october-roundup-for-evs-hybrids-phevs https://www.greencarreports.com/news/1129864_nissan-leaf-lea... Basically unobtainium lease rates outside of USA. In Canada, I'm seeing ~US$400/month for 60 month lease on a Leaf, and 40% more on a 3y lease: https://www.leasecosts.ca/en/cars/nissan/leaf-s-electric/2021/cvt/2wd https://www.leasecosts.ca/en/cars/nissan/leaf-s-electric/202...

    Likewise in the UK - Nissan leaf is about £300/month or about 415USD. I feel like leasing in the UK is not a good deal, at least to me. I think a fair amount of people outside of tech get a company car allowance that probably props up prices a bit - I don't see why anyone else would pay these rates unless they absolutely must have a new car Vs a used one

You could get a Chevy Bolt fairly recently for like $30/mo.

  From my own research, those numbers requires you to make less than ~$65k for various tax rebates. Actual cost in CA for a Bolt is more like ~$200/month for a 10mi/year lease (which isn't a bad deal in itself, but far from $30).

I had a Hyundai Elantra for $165/month after tax plus about $300 in various fees at the start of the lease. But to get great lease deals you have to love the process of seeking them out and negotiating. Otherwise, just suck it up and pay a bit more, save yourself some time. Rodo.com is a great place for many decent lease deals where they’ll even deliver the car to you.
