Mercedes-Benz Financial Services: Flexible Products and Flexible Terms Unique to Commercial Van Customers

Retail Loan: This is a simple-interest, fixed-payment program that locks in an interest rate. Customers can rely on a stable monthly payment for the term of the loan. Our commercial retail financing options give Mercedes-Benz Commercial Van customers the opportunity to customize a comfortable payment schedule that best fits their needs. The customer will own the vehicle at the end of the term and be able to take advantage of the depreciation benefits. We can even structure a solution to finance the van, upfit equipment and aftermarket products into one package.

TRAC Lease: The most common form of commercial leasing is a Terminal Rental Adjustment Clause (TRAC) lease. Our TRAC lease does not require any acquisition fee or charges for excess mileage or excess wear and tear. With a TRAC lease, customers are responsible for the residual value of the   vehicle, so that value is determined with customer input. There are also multiple options at lease end; including acquiring the vehicle or receiving the excess proceeds upon our sale of the vehicle (if applicable). TRAC leases are limited to motor vehicles leased to businesses and used at least 50% of the time for  business purposes.

Zero TRAC Lease: The Zero TRAC lease offers many of the same benefits as a TRAC lease but amortizes to $0 at lease termination. At lease end, customers may purchase the vehicle for its fair market value and Mercedes-Benz Financial Services will credit the customer's payments to the purchase price, providing ownership of the vehicle with little or no cash outlay. Customers also can choose to have us sell the vehicle, and we will return any net proceeds from the sale directly to them.

Fair Market Value (FMV) Lease: The Fair Market Value (FMV) lease is commonly referred to as a walkaway lease, since the lessee can simply turn in the vehicle and walk away, at lease maturity, after meeting all obligations of the contract (subject to certain return conditions and mileage restrictions). It typically requires a lower initial cash outlay and lower monthly payments than through a traditional loan and payments may be expensed against income. With this type of lease, the lessee avoids the risks and responsibilities typically associated with vehicle ownership, although the lessee can also purchase the truck at the end of the term for its current fair market value.

Complete Advantage Lease: Everyone has a budget, and when it comes to running your business, you can appreciate the value of even, predictable expenses. Every Complete Advantage Lease includes coverage for preventive maintenance and replacement of common wear items, plus an extended limited warranty—all giving you peace of mind and protection from unexpected vehicle  expenses.

The Complete Advantage Lease includes a fixed, inclusive monthly payment; preventive maintenance; extended limited warranty coverage; replacement of common wear items; roadside assistance; service from factory-trained service technicians; and no turn-in   fee.

With Complete Advantage Lease, you can structure your lease to best fit your individual business operations. You can choose a Fair Market Value (FMV) lease where you simply return the vehicle at the end of your term (subject to certain return conditions and mileage restrictions), or you can opt for a Terminal Rental Adjustment Clause (TRAC) lease that gives you more flexibility when it comes to lease end.

Flexible Payment Options for Commercial Van Customers:

Balloon Payments: These types of loans allow customers flexibility with their cash flow and are effective if you plan to sell your van prior to the end of the  term.

Skip/Seasonal/Token Payments: Loans can be structured to account for the seasonality of your business, with no required payments during slow periods5.

Deferred Payments: We allow qualified customers to defer payments, if needed. Life is full of uncertainties, and this value-added service can provide peace of mind when you need it most.

Extended Terms: To help our customers acquire the commercial vans they want with a payment they can afford, we offer extended terms.

Lines of Credit: We offer lines of credit, an advantage that can free up operating lines of credit for normal business expenses.

No Maximum Amount Financed: We routinely fund contracts for multiple vehicles with values exceeding $1 million.
