Why choose Calp for your car lease

Four reasons to choose Calp leasing

Lease-to-own (LOA) or long-term leasing (LLD) is an alternative to a classical car loan. You pay for vehicle use, not immediate ownership. Calp offers a readable formula without excessive security deposit.

No upfront down payment

Unlike most dealer leases, Calp requires no upfront payment or disguised down payment. The first month's payment equals subsequent payments, which simplifies budgeting and eases comparison with a classical loan.

Flexible mileage

Annual mileage allowance is adjustable mid-contract without penalty. You start with a conservative estimate, and if your use evolves (move, remote work, new activity), we adapt the contract. Final excess is billed at a transparent rate stated at signing.

Fixed purchase option at signing

The final purchase price is fixed in the contract at subscription, as a percentage of the new price. No revision based on market residual value. You know exactly how much acquiring the vehicle will cost if you decide to buy at term.

Maintenance and assistance included as option

All-inclusive package available: manufacturer maintenance, tyres, 24/7 assistance, replacement vehicle. One payment covers rental, maintenance and partial insurance. Reserved for new vehicles or less than 3 years old.

Typical use cases

What is Calp leasing used for?

Car leasing suits profiles who change vehicles regularly or prefer paying for use rather than ownership. Below are the four most frequent uses in 2025.

Partially tax-deductible payments (depending on pro/personal use), maintained vehicle with no unexpected surcharge, professional image preserved. 28% of files. Average payment EUR 480, term 36 months.

Family with evolving needs

Purchase impossible due to lack of down payment or borrowing capacity, but need for a reliable family vehicle under manufacturer warranty for the entire term. 22% of files. Average payment EUR 380, term 60 months.

Electric vehicle driver

Limits exposure to fast depreciation of electric vehicles, allows enjoying new models every 3 years, integrates the charging station in the contract. 12% of files. Average payment EUR 420.

Frequently asked questions

Your questions, our answers.

01

Who owns the vehicle?

Calp remains the owner until the purchase option is exercised. You are the lessee-user.

02

What is the residual value?

Known at signing, typically 15-25% of the original price. Exercisable at any time.

03

What insurance is required?

Comprehensive insurance is mandatory throughout the lease. Free choice of insurer.

04

What happens at term?

Three options: return with no penalty, exercise the purchase option at residual value, or a negotiated extension.

05

What is the difference between LOA and LLD?

LOA (Lease with Purchase Option) includes an acquisition option at contract end, at a price fixed at signing. LLD (Long-Term Lease) is pure leasing without purchase option: you return the vehicle at term. Calp offers both, the choice depends on your intention to keep or not the vehicle long-term.

06

What happens if I exceed the mileage?

In case of exceeding the agreed annual mileage, a per-kilometre tariff applies at contract end, stated in the offer (typically between EUR 0.08 and EUR 0.15 per km depending on vehicle). You can adjust your mileage allowance mid-contract without penalty if your use evolves, which avoids the final invoice.

07

Can I terminate the lease before the end?

Yes, but an early termination indemnity applies, calculated based on remaining payments and vehicle residual value. The indemnity is contractually capped at 6 monthly payments. Termination for force majeure (involuntary unemployment, disability, transfer abroad) benefits from a reduced or zero indemnity.

A fixed payment,
a free purchase option.

No hidden residual value, no return penalty, no mileage trap.
