2026 Rav4 - Lease thoughts?

I’m new to the leasing game, but my partner and I are seriously considering leasing a RAV4. We recently test drove one and worked up a potential deal with the dealership. Nothing has been signed yet, and I wanted to get some community input on how this deal looks and whether there’s still room for negotiation or improvement.

I’ve included all the details below — any advice or feedback would be greatly appreciated!
