Changing cars: buy or rent?
Does your car spend more time at the mechanic shop than on the road? That's the ultimate sign for you to change cars. Now the questions are: is it better to buy a new or used car? How do I register ownership? When will I have time to visit the dealerships?
Would you like some help? Replace all those questions with something as simple as this: "What if I rented a car?” With Xtracars subscription model, you can change cars whenever you want. No red tape or endless contracts. Sounds good? Read the article and find out more.
I want to change my car. Where do I start?
The first thing to know is that changing cars no longer has to be a headache. This is especially true if you're thinking of signing up for a subscription. In that case, you don't have to worry about depreciation or resale. If you don't like one model, you change to another. It's that simple.
Now that you have this in mind, know the factors that should weigh in your decision.
- Know your options. When you buy a car, you assume a series of responsibilities associated with the purchase, such as insurance, maintenance, and tire replacement. Leasing or renting, on the other hand, involves medium or long-term commitments. Last but not least, a car subscription can go from 1 to 12 months, with the possibility of canceling at any time.
- Assess your needs. Consider the number of passengers, the driving style you're most comfortable with, and the destination of your journeys. For example, if you use the car mainly for vacations, it might be better to have a model with great trunk space. Need help comparing cars? We've got you covered with our car comparator.
