Mileage Choices Right for You

GMAC offers a choice of generous vehicle mileage allowances. Select either 12,000 or 15,000 miles per year, whichever best matches your driving needs. If you require even more mileage on a lease vehicle, you can arrange for them at the beginning of your SmartLease contract to avoid excess mileage charges later.

Visit your GM dealership/retailer today and determine the auto lease mileage option best suited for you and your new GM vehicle.


SmartLease Mileage Options

Your SmartLease contract will set the number of miles you may accumulate on your vehicle. The standard SmartLease allows 15,000 miles per year. If you exceed the mileage limit on your auto lease, there is a charge for the excess miles if you decide to return the vehicle to GMAC. That is why it is important to select the mileage allowance that meets your driving needs.

Need more miles? If you drive more than 15,000 miles annually, you can purchase additional miles up front and pay less for them than at lease end. If you select this option and turn in your vehicle at the lease end, you may be eligible for a credit if there are unused miles.

Driving more than expected? Regardless of which mileage allowance you've selected, if you find that you are driving more miles than originally expected, you may increase your security deposit during the lease term. This will help offset any lease-end charges you may incur. Call us at 1-800-200-GMAC (4622) to request an authorization form. Security deposits will be used as provided in your lease agreement. Amounts not used at lease end will be refunded.


Low Mileage Options

If you drive fewer than 12,000 miles per year, consider the GMAC Low Mileage option. This provides an allowance of 12,000 miles per year for SmartLease. And, with a lower mileage allowance, your monthly payments are lower.
