How Hyundai Leasing Works with Kearys

Leasing — also known as contract hire — is a simple, fixed-term vehicle finance arrangement. You pay a monthly rental to use a brand-new Hyundai for an agreed period (typically 24, 36, or 48 months), with an agreed annual mileage limit. At the end of the term, you return the vehicle and, if you wish, move into a newer model.

Personal Contract Hire (PCH)

Ideal for private individuals who want a new Hyundai with predictable monthly costs and no long-term ownership commitment.

• Fixed monthly payments for the duration of the agreement

• Road tax included throughout the lease term

• Return the vehicle at end of term — no residual value risk

• Optional maintenance packages covering servicing and tyres

• Initial rental typically 1–9 months’ equivalent, paid upfront

Business Contract Hire (BCH)

The most popular company car solution for sole traders, partnerships, and limited companies in Ireland.

• 50% VAT reclaimable on qualifying car lease rentals

• Monthly rentals may be treated as a tax-deductible business expense

• Low Benefit-in-Kind (BIK) rates on EV and PHEV Hyundai models

• Fleet management solutions for multiple vehicles

• Maintenance and tyre packages available

Why Lease a Hyundai Instead of Buying?

For many Irish motorists and business owners, leasing a Hyundai through Kearys is a financially smarter decision than purchasing outright or through a PCP finance deal.

• No depreciation risk. Hyundai vehicles lose value the moment they leave the forecourt. With contract hire, residual value risk sits with the funder, not you.

• Lower monthly payments. Because you’re only paying for the vehicle’s use over the lease term rather than its full value, monthly rentals are typically lower than equivalent PCP repayments.

• Always drive a new car. At the end of your lease, simply return the vehicle and choose from the latest Hyundai models.

• Predictable cash flow. Fixed monthly rentals make budgeting straightforward — particularly valuable for businesses managing fleet costs.

• Hyundai’s 5-year unlimited mileage warranty. All new Hyundai vehicles in Ireland include this market-leading warranty, giving complete peace of mind during the lease.

• Tax efficiency for businesses. VAT-registered businesses can reclaim 50% of the VAT on car lease rentals. BIK rates on fully electric Hyundai models are significantly lower than on petrol equivalents.

• Optional maintenance packages. Cover servicing, tyres, and wear-and-tear items in a single monthly cost.

Leasing a Hyundai Electric Car in Ireland

Hyundai’s IONIQ electric sub-brand has transformed the case for EV leasing in Ireland. The IONIQ 5 and IONIQ 6 both use Hyundai’s E-GMP (Electric Global Modular Platform), offering ultra-fast 800-volt charging capability — meaning they can charge from 10% to 80% in as little as 18 minutes on a 350 kW charger.

For Irish business drivers, the Benefit-in-Kind (BIK) advantage on fully electric vehicles is substantial. Under current Revenue rules, battery electric vehicles attract a BIK rate of just 9% on the original market value in the 0–24,000 km mileage band — compared to up to 37.5% for higher-emission petrol or diesel company cars. This can represent thousands of euro in annual tax savings for company car users.

⚡ SEAI EV Grant: When leasing an electric Hyundai, the SEAI EV purchase grant is typically passed on in the form of a reduced monthly rental — meaning you benefit from the incentive without needing to apply directly.

Ireland’s public charging network continues to expand rapidly, with ESB ecars and third-party networks now covering motorways, urban centres, and retail locations nationwide. Combined with home overnight charging, range anxiety is no longer a meaningful barrier for most Irish EV drivers.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I lease a Hyundai in Ireland through Kearys Leasing?
Yes. Kearys Leasing offers both personal contract hire (PCH) and business contract hire (BCH) on the full Hyundai range available in Ireland, including the IONIQ 5, IONIQ 6, Tucson, Kona Electric, Santa Fe, Bayon, and i20. Deals are available to customers throughout the Republic of Ireland, with nationwide delivery.

What is the difference between personal and business Hyundai leasing?
Personal contract hire (PCH) is available to private individuals and provides a fixed-term vehicle rental with no ownership at the end. Business contract hire (BCH) is structured for sole traders, partnerships, and limited companies. BCH typically allows 50% VAT reclaim on eligible cars and monthly rentals may be treated as a tax-deductible business expense.

Is the Hyundai IONIQ 5 available on a lease in Ireland?
Yes. The IONIQ 5 is one of the most popular lease choices on the Kearys platform. Available in rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive variants, it offers up to 507 km WLTP range and 800V ultra-fast charging. As a fully electric vehicle, it qualifies for the lowest BIK rate in Ireland (from 9%).

Do I own the car at the end of a Hyundai lease?
No. Under a contract hire agreement, the vehicle is returned to Kearys Leasing at the end of the agreed term. You have no obligation or option to purchase the vehicle. This means you carry no risk from depreciation or resale — one of the primary financial benefits of leasing versus buying.

What mileage allowances are available on Hyundai leases?
Kearys Leasing offers flexible annual mileage allowances, typically ranging from 10,000 km to 40,000 km per year. Excess mileage charges apply if you exceed your agreed limit, so it is important to estimate your usage accurately. If your needs change, contact our team early as adjustments may be possible.

Can I add servicing and maintenance to a Hyundai lease?
Yes. Kearys Leasing offers optional maintenance packages that can be bundled into your monthly payment, typically covering scheduled Hyundai dealer servicing, tyres, and routine wear-and-tear items. This removes unpredictability from your monthly motoring costs.

What condition does the car need to be in at the end of the lease?
Vehicles must be returned in good condition, accounting for fair wear and tear as defined by BVRLA guidelines. Damage beyond fair wear and tear may result in end-of-contract charges. Kearys advises customers to carry out a pre-return inspection and address any remedial work in advance.

How long does it take to receive a Hyundai lease vehicle?
Delivery timescales depend on model, trim level, and current manufacturer lead times. Popular models from stock can be delivered within a few weeks; factory orders on specific specifications may take longer. Kearys Leasing will provide an indicative lead time at the point of quotation.
