Moving to Switzerland as an expatriate is exciting, but it also brings practical challenges—especially when it comes to getting the right car. Should you lease or buy? Which model holds its value? What if your assignment ends earlier than expected? These are real concerns for many expats.
At Autociel, we’ve spent more than 20 years helping thousands of newcomers navigate these questions. Our approach is simple: we select cars that retain their value and structure leases with parameters that protect you from unpleasant surprises.
Not all cars hold their value equally in the Swiss market. When we advise expats, we focus on vehicles that are popular, reliable, and easy to resell locally. This means if you leave Switzerland sooner than planned or decide to switch cars, you won’t be stuck with a vehicle that’s difficult or expensive to offload.
Leasing can be a great option for expats who want flexibility without tying up too much capital. But many standard leases come with penalties for early termination or rigid mileage conditions. At Autociel, we negotiate lease terms “on the safe side.” That means lower early-termination costs, realistic mileage allowances, and options that make it easier to return or resell your car.
If you prefer to buy, we apply the same philosophy. We guide you toward models with a proven resale track record in Switzerland and help you plan for an eventual sale or repatriation. Our network and experience ensure you get the best possible price when it’s time to move on.
From first contact to delivery, our team handles paperwork, registration, and insurance so your car is ready to drive the day you arrive. We speak your language, understand your needs as an expatriate, and act as your long-term partner—not just a seller.
Whether you lease or buy, Autociel’s “safe side” approach minimizes risk and maximizes peace of mind. It’s how we’ve built our reputation as Switzerland’s go-to car partner for expats.
