FAQ: Frequently asked questions
What is Volvo subscription?
Volvo subscription is a 24-month subscription lease program with an all-inclusive monthly payment. This payment includes the usage of the vehicle, maintenance, and other common services related to vehicle ownership. Volvo also takes care of the insurance coverage†.
What is the difference between a Volvo subscription and a traditional car lease?
When you lease a car, you are contracted for a longer period, typically 36 months. With Volvo subscription, you don’t have the same long-term commitment, as we provide you with the ability to cancel your subscription and return the vehicle any time after 12 months in the lease term and 12 payments have been made to Volvo Car Financial Services. To be eligible to terminate the lease early, you must enter a new contract with Volvo Car Financial Services for another subscription, lease, or finance (new or certified pre-owned).

What maintenance is included?
With your Volvo subscription, we include complimentary factory scheduled maintenance services recommended for your Volvo (according to your Warranty & Maintenance booklet) at each 10,000-mile interval. This maintenance offering is enhanced to also include common wear items: replacement wiper blades, brake pads, and rotors. This coverage enhancement is included for the principal 24-month term or the first 30,000 miles from starting mileage listed in the lease contract, whichever comes first.
What is Excess Wear and Use Protection?
When your vehicle is returned, it will be subject to inspection by a third party. With Volvo subscription, we will waive up to $1,000 of excess wear on the condition report. Examples of excess wear include large dents and dings to body panels, windshield damage, and tire replacement due to wear, scratched or gouged wheels, and interior damage.
What is Road Hazard Tire and Wheel Protection?
With Volvo subscription, we repair or replace unlimited tires and wheels damaged by road hazards, which include debris on the road or road conditions such as potholes. This coverage is included for the principal 24-month term or the first 30,000 miles from starting mileage listed in the lease contract, whichever comes first.
What about taxes and registration fees?
Taxes and registration fees vary by state and are not included in the subscription price shown online. Your monthly payment including taxes and fees will be summarized to you before processing your order.
Based on your state of residence, the registration fee might need to be paid separately. You may also be required to pay the annual registration fee and an excise and/or personal property tax assessment which will not be included in your monthly payment.
Can I purchase additional mileage with Volvo subscription?
The Volvo subscription includes an allotment of 1,250 miles per month. Unfortunately, we do not offer additional mileage to be purchased with Volvo subscription at this time. If you exceed the 1,250 mile-per-month allotment, you will be charged an additional $0.25 per mile when you return your Volvo.
Where is Volvo subscription offered?
Volvo subscription is available for residents in US states excluding ND, SD, NC, HI, and MS. Volvo subscriptions cannot be sold by retailers located in the states of Virginia or Florida but subscriptions can be registered and insured in those states. For New York and California residents only, an alternate subscription offer, not including insurance, is offered through retailers in those states.
Who can subscribe?
Volvo subscriptions are intended for individual and family use, not for business use. The use of a subscription for ride shares, delivery services, or similar activities is prohibited.
Can I cancel my subscription early?
Should you be in good standing with Volvo Car Financial Services, you can leverage the Early Termination Cancellation Option any time after 12 months in the lease term and 12 payments have been made to VCFS. To have your remaining payments waived, you’ll have to enter a new contract with VCFS at the time of cancellation (lease, subscription, or financing of a new or CPO vehicle). Please be aware that at vehicle return you will receive a final bill for any excess mileage above your 1,250 mile/month allowance and excessive wear per the vehicle condition report above the $1,000 waiver. Please reference your Volvo subscription Motor Vehicle Lease Agreement for complete details.
Can I switch my Volvo vehicle to another model prior to the end of the 24-month term?
Volvo subscription is a flexible program. If you meet the requirements to utilize the early termination cancellation option, it is easy to return your vehicle and re-apply for a new vehicle. You can begin your journey online, contact Volvo subscription Concierge, or visit your local retailer request a new subscription.
