What factors determine my Buyout Score?

Your score is based on 5 factors: (1) Equity - how your car's market value compares to your buyout price, (2) Reliability - how long your car is likely to keep running strong, (3) Replacement Cost - what it would cost to swap your car for the newest year, (4) Popularity - how popular lease buyouts are for your make and model, and (5) Mileage - your driving history and devotion to the vehicle.

What do I get with my Buyout Score?

You'll receive your Buyout Score (across 5 levels), a quick breakdown of why you got that score, personalized insight into your car's equity and replacement cost, and a fast, expert recommendation on whether to buy out your lease.

What information do I need to get my score?

You only need your vehicle's license plate or VIN number. The AI handles the rest by pulling vehicle data and analyzing it against market conditions and historical deal data.

How is this different from the Lease Buyout Calculator?

The Calculator estimates your monthly payment and financing costs. The Buyout Score tells you whether buying out is a smart decision in the first place, based on equity, reliability, replacement cost, and other factors. Use the Score to decide if you should buy out, then use the Calculator to see what it would cost.
