for cars it makes sense only if you really need to have a new vehicle every 3 years and you really need to have an all inclusive insurance that covers everything otherwise you save thousands by taking a loan, get limited liability insurance, then sell it after 5-6 years although the absolute savings (for a newish vehicle and not a shitbox) is to get a used one ex-leasing (max 3 years old, low mileage, all maintenance made correctly because the leasing company paid for it) then sell it after 3-4 years (or keep it until it becames a shitbox)

    Heck, even paying for full comprehensive insurance, you still come out ahead by buying on a loan and keeping it for more than 3 years. The crux is that decently priced loans are denied to the people who actually need it, but leases are not.
