What Types of Financing Options Does TESCO offer?

TESCO offers different financing and leasing options for Californians. Our leasing program offers 100% financing with low monthly payments. It helps boost purchasing power by allowing you to finance larger buses despite a low cash/credit on hand and save on taxes, which are spread out with your monthly lease payments instead of a one-time charge.

Lastly, leasing comes with Powertrain coverage, protecting you against out-of-pocket repairs.
