The $1.18 billion deal is also the first to include Tesla’s mid-range Model Y vehicle (with an MSRP of $54, 119) that makes up 36% of the securitized value of the TALT 2021-A pool, according to a presale report from Moody’s Investors Service.

The notes offering is the largest among the 21 auto-lease deals HCA has issued since 2011, and the fourth that has topped $1 billion in offered notes.

The share of 72-84 month loans is 15.56% in GMF's 2021-1 transaction, up from 12.24% in its prior prime-auto issuance.
