It also plays a role what the MSRP of your vehicle is. The more options you have, the more $$ you will lose.
My 2017 Q7 has a sticker of $88K and trading that vehicle in after a year would have cost me a fortune. I'm leasing so getting out of the contract early would be super expensive anyway.
Due to its high MSRP, it's getting better: Even at the end of my lease, I would be about $10K upside down if I would buy it at the contractual purchase price - even when considering that I used less than 10K miles in total of the 30K allowed.
One of the reasons why I'm looking at the X7 are better lease terms in general. With BMW, I can get a $105K-vehicle for about $1,250/month. Not bad considering my $88K Q7 is $1,345/month.
Audi's MF is just shameful..
