Novated Leasing
Novated Leasing for Qantas Group employees
As one of Australia’s largest novated leasing providers, we’re here to help you get the car you want while also providing the convenience and potential tax savings that come with salary packaging a car.
What is novated leasing?
If you could pay less tax, get a great deal on a new car and enjoy the budgeting convenience of having your finance and running costs covered in one regular payment, why wouldn’t you?
Available on new, used and even some existing cars, novated leasing is an ATO-approved arrangement between you, your Qantas Group employer and a finance company that lets you use pre-tax dollars to pay for a car and its expenses.
Novated leasing also allows you to bundle not only your lease payments, but your car’s running costs – including petrol, charging (if yours is an electric vehicle), insurance, registration and servicing – into one convenient regular payment.
There are two types of leases available to Qantas Group staff. Refer to Qantas' FAQ's on Qantas Group intranet for further information.
- Fully Maintained leases, where Maxxia manages all aspects of your lease, including sourcing your vehicle and finance, plus the ongoing management of your budgets, payments and maintenance.
- Self-Managed leases, where you source your own finance, directly with a financier and not via a 3rd party leasing provider, manage your own budgets, deductions and payments and take responsibility for all risks associated with your lease.
How does novated leasing work?
With a novated lease you could get a new, used or existing car leased in your name, via the Qantas Group. Then, instead of paying for your lease with the money you have left over after tax, your lease is paid for via your payroll department with funds from a combination of your pre- and post-tax salary.
Novated leasing could reduce the cost of getting into and running your next car and potentially lower your taxable income.
You don't necessarily have to be a big earner or drive lots of kilometres to benefit, a novated lease could benefit almost anyone who needs a car. Best of all, with Maxxia you can rest assured you’ve got the life-of-lease support of Australia’s most experienced novated leasing provider.

FAQs
I prefer vehicle ownership over leasing – why should I lease?
A novated lease allows you to use pre-tax dollars to pay for your car’s repayments and many of the running costs that you’d ordinarily have anyway – including registration, insurance and servicing – which could lower your taxable income while delivering a whole lot of budget convenience.
Plus, at the end of the lease, you have the option of upgrading to a new car while continuing to enjoy the same convenience and potential tax benefits.
How does novated leasing compare to a car loan?
Hold the GST
That’s right – when you source a new car through Maxxia you not only get access to our nationwide buying power, meaning competitive prices on an extensive range of new cars, but you don't pay GST upfront on the price of the car.
Our nationwide buying power gives us access to lots of great cars – and great deals.
Potential tax savings
Because part of your car payments come from your pre-tax salary, your taxable income could be less. (Once your deductions commence, your payslip will show the pre- and post-tax deductions made to Maxxia relating to your novated lease). With a regular car loan, you’d be making payments with your post-tax salary – and giving more to the tax office.
Access to competitive third-party pricing
As one of Australia’s leading novated lease providers, we have long-held relationships with suppliers and insurers nationwide and can help you get competitive prices. No more worries about insurance coverage and over-charging mechanics.
Roll up, roll up
Cruising along an open road in your new car aside, it’s the convenience of a novated lease that many enjoy. In addition to your car lease repayments, all of your running costs – fuel, servicing, insurance and registration – are rolled up into one regular payroll deduction. And the cherry on top? You could save on tax!
