A simple Answer TO yOUr Question
What happens to the EV tax credit if I return the lease early?
The tax credit is between the leasing company and the IRS, not you. If you return the lease early, the credit stays with the leasing company and has no direct impact on your taxes. Your obligation is to settle any early termination fees per your lease agreement. The credit itself does not need to be repaid by you when the lease ends.

I’ve never used a broker to buy a car before and honestly, I was skeptical. But after this experience, I’ll never step foot in a dealership again. I have a demanding job with very little free time, so I simply texted David exactly what I wanted—and that was it. The entire process happened while I was in back-to-back work meetings. I never even had to pick up the phone! It was completely stress-free and I couldn’t be happier with my Maserati Grecale!

My car was delivered right to my house - it’s just what I asked for - Tom went out of his way to locate the vehicle I was interested in. No haggling at the dealership - everything was taken care of and signing paperwork online was easy. I’m very happy with the process and efficiency of Vantage. Tom even brought toys and treats for my cats !! Thanks so much

Another five star experience!!! This is the 3rd car I’ve purchased through David and the crew at Vantage. No hassle, no bait and switch, no high pressure sales tactics or incessant follow up phone calls like with a traditional dealership. A few phone conversations with David, and he finds the car you want, with the trim package you want, at the best possible price. Delivery is convenient and the crew are always the constant professionals, taking the time to go over vehicle features and getting you setup to go…. Cant say enough.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND giving Vantage Auto Group a shot — you won’t be disappointed!!Words like “trustworthy” and “transparent” don’t usually come to mind when people think of car brokers or car salesmen… but Vantage Auto is changing that. They’re redefining the standard and restoring trust in this industry by proving that good, honest people still exist in the car business.They’re easy to deal with, efficient, communicative, and just all-around FAIR and GREAT to work with!

I just leased a new car with them yesterday and it was a fantastic and easy experience. Charlie was incredibly helpful and thorough. I had the car delivered 24 hours after my first conversation with Charlie! I'll never visit a dealer again. I highly recommend Vantage Auto Group

Great customer service! Dave was very responsive and worked hard to find the car we were looking for. His pricing was unbeatable and the vehicle was delivered right to our driveway. There was a small issue with the vehicle from the manufacturer, but Dave and his team have been working hard to rectify it. Goes to show their service doesn’t disappear after delivery, and are committed to developing relationships and making longterm customers.
