Outside of the i3, BMW FS is not passing any of the tax credit savings to the customers on PHEV leases. Lease money factor is also higher than the interest that they charge on the financing option. I don't think that is being shady, BMW FS is clearly favoring financing over leasing (perhaps they do not want to carry the residual risk) and indirectly telling the customers not to lease if they want the best financing terms.
