A leased car can use standard or actual expenses. If you choose standard, you must use it every year with that leased vehicle. It does allow you to claim mileage. Actual expenses would be your actual gas, oil, etc.

 

For more information on leased cars, this is a quick read by the IRS, Topic 510.

TurboTax also has an article on Business Use of Vehicles.

Tip: Use control F and search for lease
