Read on to learn more about what comes with a BMW Lease Agreement.

What Special Features Come with a BMW Lease Agreement?

BMW lease programs come directly from BMW Financial Services, and many of the special programs change monthly. You’ll find BMW Lease Specials on the BMW of Sarasota website. You’ll also find handy tools to learn about your buying power and apply for a lease.

While BMW Lease Specials change monthly, the benefits of leasing remain the same. When you lease a new BMW, you get to take advantage of two special programs: the BMW warranty and the BMW Ultimate Care maintenance program.

Drivers who choose a BMW lease can add extra maintenance coverage with a vehicle service contract. The programs vary based on the type of car you lease. For example, an electric BMW has different service needs compared to a BMW with a standard gas-powered engine.

How Do You Get a BMW Lease in Sarasota?

It’s easy to lease a BMW at BMW of Sarasota. The first step is to search for a vehicle that fits your driving needs and lifestyle. Most BMW leases require a good or better credit score. After you choose a vehicle, the next steps include:

What’s Included in a BMW Warranty?

New BMW models automatically come with the BMW Warranty. This program lasts for four years or 50,000 miles, whichever comes first. The warranty includes three components:

  • 4-year/50,000-mile bumper-to-bumper coverage
  • 12-year/unlimited-mile Rust Perforation coverage
  • 2-year/24,000-mile Federal Emission Warranty

The BMW electric vehicle lineup comes with a warranty that protects the high-voltage lithium-ion battery and related components for eight years or 80,000 miles, whichever comes first.

The BMW New Vehicle Limited Warranty covers defective parts and workmanship. It does not cover wear-and-tear components like motor oil, oil filters, and tires. However, the tires often have a manufacturer’s warranty that protects against defects.

Drivers must follow the manufacturer’s recommended maintenance schedule to keep the warranty active. The BMW New Vehicle Limited Warranty protects against vital engine, transmission, and drivetrain components. It also protects your BMW vehicle’s:

  • Electrical system
  • HVAC system
  • Fuel system
  • Suspension and steering
  • Infotainment system and dash gauges

If you have questions about your warranty and what is covered, the friendly and knowledgeable service advisors at BMW of Sarasota can answer them. They can help you use your warranty if any issues arise.

What Maintenance Program Comes with a New BMW Lease or Purchase?

When you purchase, finance, or lease a new BMW, you automatically get the BMW Ultimate Car coverage for 3 years or 36,000 miles. Since most drivers lease vehicles for three years or less, the vehicle has Ultimate Care protection throughout the lease term.

The BMW Ultimate Care coverage includes:

  • BMW Scheduled Maintenance
  • 24/7/365 Roadside Assistance for four years and unlimited mileage
  • Oil and filter changes
  • Other routine maintenance recommended by BMW in the first 3 years/36,000 miles
  • BMW Teleservice for service communication with BMW and BMW of Sarasota

If you decide to purchase your leased vehicle, BMW offers several other maintenance programs that last for up to eight years. There are also special maintenance programs for the BMW EV lineup.

Why Should I Get a BMW Lease from BMW of Sarasota?

BMW leases have several benefits that drivers around Sarasota and Venice enjoy. Some reasons to get a BMW lease include:

  • Getting a new BMW every few years
  • Having access to the latest tech and powertrains
  • The built-in warranty and maintenance programs
  • The easy end-of-lease process
  • Having customizable lease programs
  • No worries about depreciation or resale value
  • Low monthly payments

Since most leases have 24- or 36-month terms, drivers always have a new BMW with a full manufacturer’s warranty and Ultimate Care maintenance program. They never have to worry about costly repairs, as most issues are covered with the warranty. BMW leases give drivers predictable vehicle costs, as they never have surprises regarding maintenance and service.

When you choose a BMW lease, you have several end-of-lease options, too. BMW makes it easy to return the vehicle at the end of the lease, start a new lease, or purchase the car at the set residual value. Most BMW lease programs also include GAP insurance, which can be helpful if the car is totaled.
