You drive 2,500 km more per year than the offer assumes. The brand's price for the extra distance: SEK 116 a month. Tesla Privatleasing: Model 3 bakhjulsdrift, 36 months, 10,000 km a year, SEK 30,000 higher first payment, servicing not included, fixed payment.

Buying: SEK 449,900 for a new car in the same version, and SEK 276,924 back when you sell it after 3 years. The residual value is based on ad prices for 3-year-old cars, adjusted because you drive 37,500 km in 3 years instead of the typical 62,000 km. The interest is what the money costs: interest on a car loan, or the interest you miss on savings. Fuel, insurance and tax are the same either way. Excess mileage and abnormal wear are charged when you hand back a leased car, and trading in a car you own at a dealer usually gets you less than the ad price.
