What cars can I lease for $300? Don't miss these deals before the end of June

Leasing a car, truck, or SUV is often much more affordable than the average monthly car payment. American drivers are paying an average of $745 a month for new car payments and $521 a month for used car payments. Drivers who choose to lease a vehicle instead of financing it can pay under $300 a month for a brand-new model.

Leasing may have some drawbacks, but drivers who choose to lease over buying can save money in the short term and drive more vehicles in the long run. Luckily, there are several attractive lease offers that won't break the bank for folks who are interested in leasing instead of purchasing. These three affordable lease deals are only available until June 30.

The 2025 Toyota Camry is a practical daily driver

Japanese automaker Toyota redesigned the Camry nameplate for the 2025 model year. Aside from updated interior and exterior styling, the midsize car also benefits from a new standard hybrid-only powertrain. That's right, Toyota no longer offers new gas Camry models.

The company has implemented this strategy with several nameplates including the Sienna minivan, Tundra full-size truck, and Sequoia full-size SUV. Toyota has mastered hybrid production. It currently produces 15 different hybrid models.

The 2025 Toyota Camry boasts an incredible 51 miles per gallon combined. It has a 13-gallon tank size, so the midsize hybrid sedan is capable of traveling for over 663 miles on a full tank of gas. You can lease a 2025 Camry for $299 a month for 36 months with $3,999 due at signing. That works out to $14,763 for three years with one of the most efficient new hybrid midsize cars on the market.

Mazda's CX-30 is a classy subcompact SUV

In recent years, Mazda has gained a reputation for producing luxury-adjacent vehicles at mainstream car prices. The CX-30 is no exception, offering an opulent cabin at an affordable starting price ($25,195). The 2025 Mazda CX-30 is available in eight different trims for drivers who want better performance specs and more advanced driver-assistance and safety features.

The subcompact SUV comes standard with all-wheel drive for better traction. It also features standard blind-spot monitoring with rear cross-traffic alert, Mazda radar cruise control with stop and go, and remote keyless entry.

Drivers can lease a 2025 Mazda CX-30 subcompact SUV for $239 a month for 36 months with $4,299 due at signing. That works out to $12,093 for three years with the 2025 CX-30.

The Nissan Sentra is a budget-friendly compact car

Japanese automaker Nissan produces several popular affordable nameplates including the Nissan Rogue, Nissan Altima, and Nissan Sentra. Edmunds praises the 2025 Nissan Sentra for its "comfortable ride, roomy trunk, appealing cabin materials, and design."

If you're looking for an affordable daily driver for commuting, the Sentra is a great choice. You can lease a 2025 Nissan Sentra for $229 a month for 39 months with an initial payment of $3,259. This equates to $12,190 for three years and three months with the compact sedan.

The 2025 Sentra includes excellent standard features like automatic emergency braking with pedestrian detection, blind-spot warning, and remote keyless entry. Vehicle prices may be rising, but there are still plenty of great leasing deals available for American drivers from some of the most popular automakers in the country.
