Car Leasing and Calculator

Financial leasing is a type of leasing in which the customer pays the full value of the car in monthly installments and becomes the owner at the end of the lease term. During the leasing period, the customer fully covers the value of the car and pays interest. At the end of the financial lease term, the client receives a deed of termination of the covered liability and re-registers the asset in its own name. Private persons may conclude only financial leasing.

Operating leases are essentially long-term leases. During the lease period, the customer pays the rent, which is the difference between the purchase value of the car and the determined residual value. During the term of the contract, the customer pays only a part of the price of the car, paying for its depreciation or amortization. In the case of a finance lease, the car does not automatically become the property of the customer at the end of the lease term. At the end of the contract, the customer can redeem the car for its residual value (with an additional redemption fee), transfer the redemption right to a third party or return it to the seller.

After you submit the application and provide all the documents required for evaluating the transaction, you will receive a response within 5 business days. We would also like to remind you that if you're interested in car leasing, the calculator helps you quickly estimate preliminary payments and choose the most suitable financing option. If the mentioned period has already passed and you have not received a response, please contact us by phone at +370 5 221 9091.

Leasing with residual value – a type of leasing where the lessee covers part of the property price specified in the leasing contract during the planned leasing period, and the remaining part of the property price is left to be paid together with the last payment, which is paid by the Lessee himself or the property is bought out by a third party – the buyer (if a buyout contract has been signed).

Leasing without residual value – A way of leasing where the client pays the entire value of the vehicle in equal parts, after which he becomes the owner of the vehicle.

Mileage limitation is applied when the asset is financed with a residual value. Before concluding a leasing transaction (Financial Leasing (FL) or Operating Lease (OL)), the residual value and mileage limitation are agreed upon and specified in the leasing agreement. In the case of Financial Leasing (FL), no penalties for mileage limitation will be applied at the end of the leasing agreement if you purchase the car yourself. In the case of Operating Lease (OL), an additional fee may be applied for exceeding the mileage limitation as specified in the agreement or agreed with the dealer to whom the car will be returned. However, it is not necessary to contact the dealer immediately; this can be done at the end of the leasing agreement when you are returning the asset.

In the case of Financial Leasing, the agreement can be extended if the residual value is more than 5000 EUR, assuring that the leased car will not be older than 15 years at the end of the term. To prolong the agreement, please please fill out the application in the leasing portal or inform us by email at info@citadeleleasing.lt no less than 60 days before the end of the agreement.
