Automotive finance leased vehicle revenue mix measures leased-vehicle income as a share of GM Financial revenue.

GM Financial reported $7.8 billion of leased-vehicle income on $17.060 billion of 2025 net sales and revenue.

The reported 46% lease mix reconciles to the revenue table

Dividing $7.8 billion by $17.060 billion gives about 45.7%, which rounds to GM's reported 46% leased-vehicle revenue mix.

GM also described retail finance charge income as 41% of revenue and commercial finance charge income as 7%, leaving a smaller residual for other income categories.

Lease revenue carries a different risk than loan interest

Leased-vehicle income depends on depreciation and residual-value assumptions in addition to customer credit performance. A 46% mix therefore says more than "almost half the revenue is financing."

Do not map revenue mix directly to originations

Revenue mix reflects income recognized from the existing earning-asset portfolio. Automotive Finance Retail Sales Penetration describes current vehicle-financing penetration, a different denominator and time horizon.
