How Credit Impacts a Lease

 
The credit requirements for leasing a Chevy Malibu sedan are looser than if you bought it. However, a higher score means you’ll enjoy better lease terms because it makes you less of a risk to lenders.
 
  • A score of 720 or higher, along with a good driving record, your location, and other factors should guarantee the best lease terms.
 
  • If your score is between 720-660, you’ll still be considered a “prime” borrower and will likely enjoy good terms.
 
  • A score between 660-620 is considered “near prime”, which means you might need to put down a security deposit. 
 
  • A score below 620 might make it difficult to find a lender. If you do find one, you could end up paying much more. 
 
If you have no credit history, you could be classified as a “sub-prime” candidate, which means you’ll need someone to co-sign the lease. This is often the case for teens and other new drivers who may not have a credit card or job yet.
