With high prices on the used car market, a cheap lease may be the best way to get into a car while sticking to a tight budget.

The 2025 Hyundai Elantra is the cheapest vehicle to lease this month. Besides that, it’s a familiar list of vehicles, with Hyundai, Nissan, and Subaru well-represented.

Keep in mind that the best lease deals typically apply to the base trim. For this reason, the deals you see below should be considered examples of the best-case scenario. The actual monthly payments and down payments may only be “as low as” the dollar amounts listed in this article. The “Total Cost” excludes taxes and fees. Lease deals vary by location, so be sure to check online or with your dealer to find the best offers available near you. Your credit score could also impact the availability of these leasing incentives.

How We Ranked These Lease Offers

The deals are ranked from the cheapest to the most expensive based on the total “effective” monthly payment. For each vehicle shown, we added up all the monthly payments plus the down payment and then divided it by the number of months. Our hope is that this makes it easy to see which lease deals offer the most value for your money. (For a summary of every lease deal this month, click here.)

For each of our cheapest lease deals listed, we provide the total cost of the lease and the effective monthly payment (both excluding taxes and fees), as well as the manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP). This way, you can clearly see how the deals stack up.

Just because a car is available with a cheap lease promotion doesn’t mean it’s a subpar vehicle. In fact, some popular and highly rated cars, trucks, and SUVs are available with appealing lease deals every month. And, if we did find a cheap leasing incentive on a vehicle that’s not worth the money, we left it out.
