Thanks! Yes, 'downpayment' is the term commonly used for an initial upfront balloon payment in the US. If no upfront payment is needed, that's referred to as 'zero down'. This looks like a decent lease deal. Is it 36 month? Were any annual kilometer limits announced (10,000 would be considered standard, I believe).
What they do say is: " BMW Financial Services will offer a flexible use of the i3. With a leasing offer, a client will be able to modify the duration and the km during the contract."
I guess you can lease it for 36 months, maybe 24?
