Most leases limit the number of miles you may drive. You can negotiate a higher mileage limit and pay a higher monthly payment. You will likely have to pay charges for exceeding those limits if you return the vehicle.
You may drive as many miles as you want, but higher mileage will lower the vehicle’s trade-in or resale value.

There are no limits or charges for excessive wear to the vehicle, but excessive wear will lower the vehicle’s trade-in or resale value.
At the end of the lease (typically 2-4 years), you may have a new payment either to finance the purchase of the existing vehicle or to lease another vehicle.
At the end of the loan term (typically 4-6 years), you have no further loan payments.
