A simple Answer TO yOUr Question

Is it better to buy or lease an EV?

For most buyers in 2026, leasing an EV is the smarter financial move. Leasing lets you avoid rapid depreciation, capture the federal commercial lease credit without income restrictions, and upgrade to newer technology every 3 years. Buying makes more sense if you plan to keep the vehicle long-term, drive high mileage, or have a specific vehicle with strong resale value. Run both scenarios with actual numbers before deciding.

Great service! Sean worked with me over a couple of weeks to get a car that fit my budget and that I love. They delivered the car right to my house with a full tank of gas, signed some paper work and I was done. 100% would recommend.

I’ve worked with Dave twice for new cars. The process has always been easy and fast! The first time I wasn’t sure which car I wanted so Dave talked me through his recommended options. The second time I knew what I wanted and Dave jumped on getting me the best deal possible.

I rarely write any reviews, I do find it necessary that I write one this time.I haven't purchased a new vehicle for quite some time. When I decided to move forward I dreaded the thought of having to go through the process of dealing with multiple dealerships, gathering quotes etc. and having to deal with pushy, non-transparent sales and finance people. Don't get me wrong, not all dealerships are that way or have staff looking to make big profit margins. If you've bought or leased any vehicle, you know those sales and finance guys are out there looking to make the absolute most profit possible. They get you going this way and that way. That's their business, to make money, I get that but the frustration, time and effort just isn't worth it to me.So, with that said, I was told by Brandon an employee of Vantage Auto Group to give them a try. Tommy C. was my contact and I have to say, from day one this was the best experience I had ever had with purchasing a new vehicle. No hassle, no frustration, no running back and forth to dealerships. Everything was taken care of with the utmost professionalism, transparency in order to satisfy the customer (Me). Aside from a minor setback which was corrected immediately, Tommy came through with the new truck that I was looking for. Hassle free, I received delivery even with a little parting gift which was very much appreciated.I am 100% satisfied and would highly recommend using Vantage Auto Group for your next lease or purchase of a new/used vehicle.Thanks again Tommy and All at Vantage Auto GroupA Happy customerAndy
