June 2026Data: Manufacturer Programs12 min read

Our data indicates a strategic advantage in leasing remaining 2025 inventory rather than 2026 models. Based on current local availability and manufacturer programs, the Volvo EX90 Performance Plus offers a highly competitive 1.49% APR equivalent.

The key takeaway from our latest data analysis is the continued strength of automaker lease support. Manufacturer lease cash remains a primary factor in lowering capital costs, particularly for remaining 2025 EV models.

Hyundai: The Ioniq 6 Cash Drop

Hyundai is dropping up to $16,750 in lease cash on the Ioniq 6 Limited. This massive incentive completely overrides the average residual values to create phenomenal monthly payments.

TrimMSRPMF (36mo)APRRV (36/10K)~Monthly*
Ioniq 6 Limited RWD$51,1000.002275.45%49%~$423
Ioniq 6 Limited AWD$54,6000.002305.52%48%~$471

*Pre-tax, 36mo/10K miles, Northeast region. Cap = MSRP - LC. Data: HMF, June 2026.

Verdict: Hyundai Ioniq 6

Both trims boast lease ratios in the 0.83% to 0.86% range. The RWD model hitting ~$423/month makes it one of the absolute smartest daily driver leases available right now.

Kia: The EV6 AWD Flip

The Ioniq 6's platform sibling is quietly the smarter buy. Kia Finance is stacking up to $16,800 in lease cash and bonus cash on the EV6, and the quirk is that the AWD trims actually post a lower lease ratio than RWD, more cash plus a higher 48% residual.

TrimMSRPMF (36mo)APRRV (36/10K)~Monthly*
EV6 Light Long Range AWD$51,7950.002165.18%48%~$432
EV6 Wind AWD$56,6100.002145.14%48%~$494

*Pre-tax, 36mo/10K miles, Northeast region. Cap = MSRP - LC (incl. $1,500 bonus cash). Data: Kia Finance America, June 2026.

Verdict: Kia EV6

The Light Long Range AWD ties the best Ioniq 6 at a 0.83% lease ratio while giving you all-wheel drive and more range for the money. Skip the GT at just $1,500 cash and a 0.42 residual, it leases near 1.9%.

Ford: The Mach-E Sweet Spot

The Mustang Mach-E leverages a flat $8,250 in lease cash across its AWD trims. Combined with a respectable 50% residual and solid 2.52% APR, it delivers the lowest raw payment on our list.

TrimMSRPMF (36mo)APRRV (36/10K)~Monthly*
Mach-E Select AWD$39,4950.001052.52%50%~$373
Mach-E Premium AWD$42,9950.001052.52%50%~$427

*Pre-tax, 36mo/10K miles, Northeast region. Cap = MSRP - $8,250 LC. Data: Ford Credit, June 2026.

Verdict: Ford Mach-E

The Select AWD provides the cheapest raw monthly payment in our data dump at ~$373. Both trims slide under the 1% lease ratio rule, making them extremely smart budget plays.

BMW: The i7 Cash Infusion

BMW is pushing its flagship electric sedan hard. The i7 M70 features $20,350 in lease cash, while the xDrive60 gets a still-massive $15,920 credit.

TrimMSRPMF (36mo)APRRV (36/10K)~Monthly*
i7 xDrive60$124,2000.001002.40%53%~$1,353
i7 M70$168,5000.001303.12%53%~$1,943

*Pre-tax, 36mo/10K miles, Northeast region. Cap = MSRP - LC. Data: BMW FS, June 2026.

Verdict: BMW i7

Both trims offer lease ratios right around 1.1%. With strong 53% residuals and five-figure lease cash, these are excellent luxury plays for those who want flagship performance without eating extreme depreciation.

Volvo: The Value Ratios

The EX30 remains a standout with a fantastic 1.09% lease ratio. Volvo also supports the flagship EX90 Performance Plus with $7,500 in lease cash and a very low 1.49% APR.

TrimMSRPMF (36mo)APRRV (36/10K)~Monthly*
EX30 Twin Motor AWD Plus$46,1950.000962.30%49%~$505
EX90 Twin Motor Perf Plus 7S$84,9950.000621.49%49%~$1,070

*Pre-tax, 36mo/10K miles, Northeast region. Cap = MSRP - $7,500 LC. Data: VCFS, June 2026.

Verdict: Volvo EX Series

Lease the EX30. Getting an AWD luxury EV for ~$505/month is a rare opportunity. The EX90 is a phenomenal three-row luxury option due to its artificially low money factor.

Payment Math & Assumptions

All monthly payments are pre-tax estimates based on: cap cost = MSRP, no down payment, no dealer discount, no incentive applied except for non-conditional lease cash. Term: 36 months / 10,000 miles per year. Acquisition fee not capitalized in these estimates.

Tax, registration, title, and dealer doc fees are excluded and vary by state. Your drive-off costs depend on your state's lease tax treatment, which can add $0–$1,500+ at signing.

  • Cap cost = base trim MSRP minus lease cash. Every dollar negotiated off MSRP reduces your payment directly.
  • MF is the published buy-rate. Dealers can mark it up. Always verify the exact MF on your deal sheet before signing.
  • Region: Northeast region rates and residuals. Other regions may vary slightly.
