Leasing as a solution to avoid waiting up to 7 months for a car

by time news

RentingCoches, Sumauto’s specialized portal, has expanded its mobility offer by incorporating pre-owned car rentals. With a price adjusted to the pocket of any driver, this type of rental contract is only for 1 year, for vehicles with an average age of 3 years and between 30,000 and 80,000 kilometers. A new line of business that arises in a context of rising inflation and with a recession on the horizon, so that it adapts to those potential buyers who demand a vehicle, but they do not want to become indebted or financially leveraged. In fact, one of the keys to this model is that the annual contract can be terminated after 6 months without any penalty.

All this comes at a time when market prices are becoming ‘prohibitive’ for many Spanish households. Currently, the price of a used car stands at 17,561 euros on average, according to MSI, while a new one moves at an average of 20,500 euros, according to the AEAT.

Instead, this pre-owned rental offers a wider range of rental cars than the usual new car rental without losing any of the advantages: comprehensive insurance, taxes, maintenance and repairs or tire change for a monthly fee adjusted to each type of vehicle.

This new business model proposed by Sumauto is positioned halfway between classic renting and short-term rental, allowing progress towards personalization of the service, since it adapts to the specific or circumstantial needs of each driver. Thus, it becomes an ideal solution for those who already need to have a vehicle and cannot wait for the 5 months that it currently takes to deliver a vehicle of combustion, according to promoCAR data from Kantar, 7 months if it is an electrified.

This is due to the fact that when contracting this service, the vehicle is delivered in less than a month. It may also be an option to test drive a vehicle before deciding to purchase it.
