What Is a Capital One Lease Buyout? A **Capital One lease buyout loan** is a standard auto loan offered by Capital One that allows you to [**purchase your leased vehicle**](https://leaseend.com/learn/auto-loan-to-buy-out-a-lease) instead of returning it. When your lease ends, you have the option to buy the car for the predetermined **buyout amount** listed in your lease contract. Capital One finances this purchase the same way they finance used auto loans, but with one key difference: *It’s for ****your leased car****, the one you already know, trust, and presumably like enough to consider keeping.* The cost to buy your car is fixed, your contract is already in place, and Capital One helps turn your leased vehicle into an owned vehicle with a competitive loan. ## 2.
