2012 Nissan Lease Rates – May 2012

Some residual changes are in effect this month. MF has also changed. One notable drop in MF is on the Leaf. It went from 0.00175 to 0.00071 which is huge in my opinion. There is also $7,500 in lease cash and there is also $500 for recent college grads. Not sure if the graduation cash can be used with the lease cash, but I wouldn’t be surprised if you could since there isn’t anything stating otherwise on Edmunds’ incentive page. See below for a sample calculation. If you are currently shopping for a Leaf, please share your experiences. Thanks!

Nissans are leasing well this month still. The Altima’s MF seems to have gone up a bit and I am not seeing the special 24-month lease anymore. I still think sale prices should remain aggressive for remaining inventory so stay aggressive with your negotiations. On another note, Jon just leased a Sentra SR, you can see his comments here. $199.81 monthly (with tax) + $391 at drive-off. 95 RWG rating. 39 months, 15k miles per year.


Here is a sample calculation based on TrueCar’s Southern California sale price and do not include local taxes. Please note that your dealer calculations may vary due to local fees/taxes.

  1. Am looking at leasing a 2012 Nissan Maxima SV with Premium Package sometime before my current Maxima lease is up in August. What is the current residual and money factor for this model for a 39 month lease @ 12000 miles/year. Thanks.

    • sorry mike. for some reason I only get numbers for the S (and only 36-mo). I have asked for the SV in the past…but no luck there.

  2. My lease is up on my 2009 Altima SL and I am looking at the 2012 Rogue SV w/SL Package. Would you happen to know the current residual with 12,000 miles per year for 39 months.

    Thanks for your help.
