Great Toyota Leases for March 2010

March 22, 2010

We have talked a lot about Toyota in these articles, given their unfortunate problems, and our expectations of incentives from them to help shore up sales.

We have recently reported that the company is only offering a smattering of incentives, not including rebates, but a healthy dose of zero percent loans and $2000 in factory-to-dealer cash on some models and styles. Actually, these are not bad incentives at all and maybe our expectations are just too high. See our article, Toyota Deals So Far, for more details.

Now, however, Toyota has added some very attractive lease deals on most models. The current deals are good until March 31.

[ UPDATE 4/7/2010: Toyota announced today that the March lease deals, including 2 years free maintenance, will be continued through April 2010. ]

The “catch” is that the special lease deals only apply to one style within each affected model line. For example, for the Camry model line, the special lease is only for one style, the Camry LE 4-door, 4-cylinder sedan. It’s your only choice. You can’t get the same deal on other Camry styles such as the 2-door coupe.

Here are examples of the best Toyota car lease deals for March 2010. All are for 36 month leases, 12K miles annually. All are for 2010 model vehicles, except where noted.

Toyota Prius (style II) – $169 a month, $2869 due at signing

Toyota Camry LE – $149 a month, $2859 due at signing

Toyota Matrix – $169 a month, $2934 due at signing
