Smart ForTwo Now Offers Attractive Lease Option

Disappointing sales will benefit buyers considering a Smart car, especially if they don't want to buy a ForTwo out of pocket. The company has announced the terms of a new leasing strategy effective this year.

Until the end of February, buyers who qualify for the lease will be able to walk away with a new Smart ForTwo with less than $2,000 in cash up front, and monthly payments of $169.

The Smart ForTwo offers impressive fuel economy: 33 miles per gallon in urban driving and 41 MPG on the highway. If you don't need a back seat and want to save at the pump, it may be the right choice.

If you want room for more than just you and a passenger, however, several hybrid options offer similar economy and a rear seat. Now is a good time to consider a lease on any of the more efficient models because automakers are pushing leases as a way to improve sales.

For example, the Honda Insight is available for a few hundred more at signing, and about $30 per month. Other models have similar terms for buyers. All in all, it's a great time to lease a fuel-sipping vehicle.
