MB usually have a pull-forward program of around 4 months if you sign a new lease with them (that is what I heard, I didn't personally lease so I am sorry if the information isn't the most up-to-date or accurate even) but... we have a global chip shortage and if you car is popular and in high demand, dealerships might be willing to pay all your lease payments and take the keys from you or they will give you some cash back, try calling your local dealership to find out. Good luck!

Unless there is a specific program going on, then it's hit or miss. If you are looking to get into a new car, they should welcome you with open arms, LOL. So, right now seems like a very good time -- but -- there is a supply chain, manufacturing, supply issues and shortage right now. The dealer could be desperate for your car, but could also be light on inventory to put you in a new one. A dealer I just visited with told me they normally have 25-30 E-classes in house -- and now they have 6 to 8 depending on the day. So, current landscape can work for you, and perhaps against you.

Normally though, hit or miss, and it really is contingent if you are getting into a new car. If not, fasten your seat belt, it might be a bumpy ride, LOL. Good luck!
