How Vermont taxes a Cybertruck lease
Vermont taxes only the DEPRECIATION portion of the lease — the difference between the vehicle's capitalized cost and its residual value — at 6%. Tesla capitalizes that tax into the lease, so it rides inside the monthly payment rather than the due at signing.
Vermont applies one statewide treatment, so your ZIP code doesn't change the rate.
Where Vermont ranks on lease cost
On the honest cross-state comparator — the full 3-year cost (everything due at signing plus every remaining payment) — Vermont ranks #19 of 47 leaseable states at an all-in $1,194/mo ($43,000 over the full three years), against a national all-in average of $1,202/mo. Comparing quoted monthlies across states is misleading: states that collect tax at signing look cheaper per month than they are.
