This was in the news. I haven't contacted the dealer yet but it looks like $2210 pay down and $125 a month. My simple math says about $185 a month.

This excludes any dealer discounts. But may exclude some other fees. I have never leased so no clue.

Great as a third car. Note that this model didn't get very good reviews - hence it being priced accordingly.

Correct.
Toyota built this as a compliance car to fill a gap in the lineup and has zero focus on it or care. If anything, it is the 'look we built an EV, it sucks!'. The first production run had WHEELS FALLING OFF. They recalled every single one! The car is slow and just utterly wild in it's idiocy.

We test drove the badge engineered Subaru version - the Solterra. Same car, different logo.
The list of infuriating choices piled fast. Want to move the driver's seat? BEEPS. CONSTANT BEEPS.
Want to back up? It beeps on the inside and inside only. Who are they warning?! Me? I"M DRIVING THE CAR.
The performance is just bad. It has a quick little bit of torque and then falls on it's face.
Did I mention the range sucks and that the car does not support fast charging so you literally cannot roadtrip it without hour-long-stops?
All in all, it just felt like Toyota was completely uninterested in building it as it is lower margin than gas/hybrid.

Then you have the ioniq 5. Hyundai's focus is straight up on on beating the Tesla Model Y. They are serious and in it. The car is shockingly better looking in person than the BZ4X. The interior feels like tomorrow and has innovative ideas, way more range, way better software, etc.
Korea is currently having the same moment that Japan had in the 90s, Hyundai should be taken seriously, esp in the EV space.
Texas sucks for leases. Have to pay taxes on full amount.

TX offer is $4k down $219 a month plus TTL
This price is only for 2023 which is all sold out

Mustang Mach-e does the internal beep on backup, too. I guess it makes sense to include that…if it were in addition to an external beep. But, yeah, that's not uncommon.

Quote from pbandnv :
I don't think it's "blindly" assuming Toyota makes a good car. They have an impressive track record of doing so, so there's an expectation that it will be good. When I open up my consumer reports magazine I expect 6 out of the top 10 cars to be a Toyota since that's been the case for the last 20 years. The fact that they put out a lemon is pretty shocking considering their track record. But I agree… always need to do your homework when it comes to a company bringing out a new type of vehicle

I agree with you - in an earlier post I do state that if it were a Toyota gas or hybrid, I'd absolutely assume that it's a stellar vehicle. I'm waiting on 4Runner reviews, personally. Toyota just doesn't do EV well, not yet anyways. And that's fine, they're still dominating everything else.

Quote from bob151 :
The beeping inside is absolute lunacy.

I like toyota's, I have 3 in my family.

But the beeping inside is fully unnecessary, its like toyota is saying to its customer,
'Hey dimwit, your backing up BTW! Pay attention!'
2011 Camry doesn't beep, 2023 HiHy doesn't beep. Why would this car and a 2015 Prius beep on the inside when backing up?

Madness.

I have a Toyota Prius 2018. I had the beep, got rid of it for $20 with a Bluetooth obd reader.

Quote from gto11520 :
The Lease for this car is a good deal. I just bought the car this week found an ad for it . I leased the top model 2023 limited red with extras for 250 a month plus only pay taxes 3100 included the price with new registration with new plates.

With the current model hybrid and inflation let's say you buy a new rav4 hybrid msrp is at 30k -50 k, you get a great deal of a 38,000k top model rav 4 2023 with no mileage + taxes (3000 -4000) = 41k

This is assuming you pay all in cash ...if you finance it would be ridiculous with the current interest rates.

At 41k / 15 years = 230ish a month NOT COUNTING DEPRECIATION AND MAINTENANCE assuming that you know how to fix cars and be able to get parts for cheap.

I am paying about 100 dollars more per month to test drive a EV CAR FOR next 36 months
the $3100 upfront kills the deal, $0 down and $250 per mo would be slick

Quote from Scizmz :
Dont get the toyotas or Chevy Bolts. They have crappy onboard chargers that take super long to charge at 3rd party sites. 50kwh cap.
I have a 2024 Audi Q8 Etron, but I LOVE the Bolts…..I picked up a 2022 Bolt EUV Premier for the kid to drive, and liked it so much I just bought a 2023 Bolt EV 2LT as an extra car before they disappear altogether. Fantastic value, and we have a charger in our garage so charging speed is a non-issue. The EV is a fun city car for errands, quick, agile, easy to park, and loaded with tech. The EUV has a softer, almost supple ride, and is pretty quiet.

This thing is widely know to be absolute trash.
Why exactly makes this trash? Do you own one or have driven one? I've driven the Subaru version and trash is not a word I would describe it.

If I would buy an EV, the last thing on my list is Tesla. Very cheap build quality inside. I dont care about the 0-60. I am not racing the the car to work.

Quote from mannyv :
Never prepay a lease if you can help it. If you total the car you're hosed. You're renting, no reason to prepay for your rental.
I appreciate and understand that angle, and it's something to consider.
The insurance seems to have an addon/rider (for about $30 a year) for new car replacement/gap coverage. Not sure if this completely addresses this issue.

However, the interest cost is still to be considered, which is what prepay (like a purchase) takes care of. Say for $8000 , interest expense at 5% is $400 , so if you have the cash, does it make sense to prepay (purchase the lease). Would like some analysis on this.

Nothing will stop them taking all your down payment no matter what.
If you really have $8000, you can use it in multiple security deposits. This will lower your interest rate.
Do not ever put down payment(anything other than fees and first month) to a lease.
