Kia EV6 Lease Deals

The EV6 is the best EV lease value on the market right now. At $201/mo with 103 deals available, it combines 310-mile range, a sporty GT-Line aesthetic, and 800V ultra-fast charging — 10 to 80% in about 18 minutes. That charging speed matters on road trips: you stop for food and your car is ready before you are.

The EV6 and IONIQ 5 share the same Hyundai Motor Group E-GMP platform — same architecture, same 800V charging. The difference: EV6 is sportier and lower, IONIQ 5 has a more upright cabin and more cargo. If you want the driving feel, go EV6. If you want the space, go IONIQ 5. Both qualify for the full $7,500 credit passthrough in lease form.

Hyundai IONIQ 5 Lease Deals

The IONIQ 5 starts at $219/mo with 66 deals in our database. The retro-futuristic design is genuinely distinctive — it looks unlike anything else on the road. Inside: a flat floor (the battery is under the floor, not a hump), huge cargo space, and vehicle-to-load (V2L) power outlets that let you run appliances directly from the car. 303-mile range, AWD available.

The 2025 IONIQ 5 now ships with a Tesla Supercharger adapter (NACS) as standard equipment — meaning you have access to both the Hyundai charging network and Tesla's 12,000+ Supercharger locations. That's the biggest practical charging network in North America, which removes the last real friction point for EV road trips.

Honda Prologue Lease Deals

Honda's first true EV SUV starts at $209/mo — 19 deals available. Built on GM's Ultium platform (the same architecture behind the Chevy Blazer EV), the Prologue delivers 296-mile range in a familiar three-row-capable SUV package. At that price, it's arguably the lowest payment-per-range EV on the market.

Honda is aggressively pricing the Prologue to gain EV market share — which is exactly your advantage as a lessee. The combination of Honda's aggressive lease support and the $7,500 federal credit passthrough results in a payment that would be competitive even for a gas CR-V. If you're Honda-loyal and EV-curious, the Prologue is the clearest on-ramp available.

Kia EV9 Lease Deals

The EV9 is the 3-row EV for regular people. At $409/mo with 100 deals available, it seats 6–7, delivers 304 miles of range, and comes with V2L capability — meaning you can power your house during an outage, run a campsite, or charge another EV from it. The technology feels like something from a car twice the price.

The competitive comparison is stark: a Rivian R1S leases at $700+/mo. A Tesla Model X starts at $1,000+/mo. The EV9 at $409 delivers a genuinely premium three-row experience at roughly half those figures. If you have a family and want an EV that actually fits everyone, the EV9 is the answer.

Mercedes-Benz EQ Lease Deals

The Mercedes EQ lineup spans from the compact EQB at $409/mo (69 deals) to the flagship EQS at $949/mo (236 deals). In between is the EQE — the E-Class EV — from $719/mo (231 deals). These are the luxury EV play: MBUX infotainment, ambient lighting, and the badge that comes with Mercedes ownership, all qualifying for the EV credit passthrough in lease form.

The EQB at $409/mo is worth special attention. It's a 7-seat compact SUV — Mercedes quality, EV practicality, at a payment that's surprisingly accessible for the badge. If you want the prestige of Mercedes at an attainable monthly, the EQB is the entry point. The EQE is the daily driver sweet spot for serious luxury shoppers: more range than the EQB, genuine executive-class interior, and a payment that's actually lower than a gas E-Class at many dealers.

How to Lease an EV the Smart Way

  1. 1
    The $7,500 federal tax credit — how it works in a lease

    The manufacturer (or captive finance arm) claims the credit when it acquires the vehicle for the lease, then passes it through as a capitalized cost reduction. You get roughly $200/month off what the payment would otherwise be — automatically, without qualifying personally. No income limits apply.

  2. 2
    Don't buy an EV, lease it

    Battery tech and range are improving fast. A car you buy today has outdated range and features in four years. At 36 months, you hand back the keys and step up to whatever's best then — more range, faster charging, newer software. You never deal with resale value on a technology that's still evolving rapidly.

  3. 3
    Check state incentives too

    California, Colorado, New York, and Massachusetts offer additional EV incentives on top of the federal credit. California's Clean Vehicle Rebate can add $1,500–$4,500 in savings. Colorado offers a $5,000 state tax credit for EVs. Stack these with the federal passthrough and EV leasing becomes even more compelling.

  4. 4
    Negotiate the cap cost, not just the payment

    Same rule as gas cars. The capitalized cost is the selling price of the vehicle. Every $1,000 off MSRP reduces your monthly payment by roughly $28 on a 36-month lease. Always negotiate from the cap cost first — then verify the money factor and residual.

  5. 5
    Understand charging before you sign

    A Level 2 home charger (about $600 installed) changes the math entirely. You plug in overnight and wake up to a full charge. Most EV lessees charge 80% at home and only use DC fast charging for road trips. The EV6 and IONIQ 5 both support 800V fast charging — 10 to 80% in 18 minutes at a compatible charger.

EV Lease FAQ

Do EVs qualify for the $7,500 federal tax credit when leasing?

Yes. For any qualifying EV, the leasing company (not you personally) claims the $7,500 federal tax credit and passes it through as a capitalized cost reduction. This means you automatically benefit from the credit regardless of your income — no eligibility requirements, no tax filing needed.

What's the cheapest EV to lease right now?

The Kia EV6 leads at $201/mo, followed by the Honda Prologue at $209/mo and the Hyundai IONIQ 5 at $219/mo. All three benefit from the $7,500 federal EV tax credit passthrough. The EV6 is particularly compelling — 310-mile range at a price lower than most gas compact sedans.

Should I lease or buy an EV?

Lease. Battery technology and range are improving fast enough that a car you buy today could feel outdated in three to four years. At 36 months, you hand back the keys and step into whatever the best EV is at that time. Plus, leasing is the only way to guarantee you capture the $7,500 tax credit passthrough without income restrictions.

How does EV charging work for lessees?

Most EV lessees charge at home 80% of the time with a Level 2 charger (typically $600–$800 installed). You plug in overnight and wake up to a full charge — no gas station runs ever. For road trips, DC fast charging adds ~200 miles in 20–30 minutes. The EV6 and IONIQ 5 both support 800V ultra-fast charging, meaning 10–80% in about 18 minutes.

What's the range on these EV lease deals?

Kia EV6: 310 miles. Honda Prologue: 296 miles. Hyundai IONIQ 5: 303 miles. Toyota bZ4X: 252 miles. Kia EV9: 304 miles. Hyundai IONIQ 6: up to 361 miles (the longest range sedan in its class). All are real-world EPA estimates.

Can I lease an EV with no money down?

Some deals advertise $0 due at signing. Most require at minimum first month's payment plus a security deposit. The more impactful number to negotiate is the capitalized cost — every $1,000 off MSRP saves you roughly $28/month on a 36-month lease, compounding across the entire term.
