What is novated leasing?

Wondering how a novated lease compares to a traditional car loan?

With a novated lease, you choose the car you want, and your employer makes the lease payments, which includes your running costs, using a portion of your pre-tax salary. This could lead to big income tax savings.

 

A traditional car loan on the other hand is paid for using only your post-tax income and does not give you the same income tax savings.
