• Does the lease price include replacement transport?

    Replacement transport is an optional clause in your lease agreement. If your agreement includes replacement transport, you are entitled to a replacement vehicle if your own vehicle's repairs or maintenance will take longer than twenty-four hours. For replacement vehicles, we distinguish between a budget option and a deluxe option.

      • Budget: the replacement vehicle is a small car (Volkswagen Up class).
      • Deluxe: the replacement vehicle is no more than one class lower than your own lease vehicle.

    Note: if you require replacement transport and this is not included in your lease agreement, the resulting costs will be charged to the contracting party.

  • What is included in the lease price?

    Our lease prices are very comprehensive. The standard lease price includes:

    • Interest and depreciation
    • Repair, maintenance and tyres
    • Liability + hull insurance (All Risk) with a liability insurance deductible of €0 per event
    • Personal accident insurance (it is important to note that the PAI coverage only extends to the number of belted seats in the vehicle). Consult the registration certificate for this information.
    • Road tax (HSB)
    • 24-hour (inter)national breakdown and damage service (with optional replacement transport)
    • 24-hour availability by phone

  • Is the lease price “including fuel” truly inclusive or will there be a subsequent charge?

    The lease price “including fuel” includes an advance for fuel costs. This advance is calculated based on the vehicle's fuel consumption as stated by the manufacturer and the annual mileage. The fuel advance is charged every month as part of the lease price. Every quarter, the advances are settled with the actual fuel costs.

  • What (extra) costs should I expect when driving an electric vehicle?

    Electric cars don’t need petrol or diesel – but you will pay for electricity. Of course, you’ll save on fuel costs, but you’ll have electricity costs instead. Good to know: we can include the cost of installing a home or workplace charging station in your lease price.

     

    How much does a charging station cost?

    Installing a charging station is always custom work. Some homes need digging work, others need changes to the fuse box — and that affects the total cost. If everything goes smoothly, you can expect a cost of around €3,250 (incl. VAT). We can include these costs in your monthly lease price. Here’s what’s included in that price:

    • Charging socket or fixed 5-meter cable

    • Load balancing via smart P1 meter

    • RFID / SIM / kWh meter

    • Automatic reimbursement of electricity costs

    • Back-office subscription + extended warranty

    A standard installation covers:

    • Call-out and labour

    • Up to 10 metres of power cable

    • Up to 3 metres of digging and paving

    • Wall-mounted charger

    • Adjustments to the fuse box

    • One wall drill (concrete or cavity wall)

    The charging card

    At DirectLease, you’ve got 3 options:

    • No charging card

    • A national charging card (€3/month)

    • An international charging card (€4/month)

  • What does it cost to drive more/fewer kilometres?

    That differs per manufacturer, fuel type and even the implementation level is a factor. The costs of a higher/lower mileage are listed in your offer and in your lease agreement. If your actual mileage differs more than 10% from your chosen mileage, we will amend your lease agreement in mutual consultation.
