If the full running costs and taxation are taken into account, electric vehicles may be more affordable than you think. You can do three things to help you understand the overall value of an EV:
Firstly, see how much it costs to run your current fuel car. There are many expenses we take for granted with combustion cars. Road tax, fuel, and servicing costs. You may find you can dramatically reduce this amount and put that saving towards an EV. Take the running cost test at https://electrictogether.com/discover
Also, look to see if you are eligible for the Salary Sacrifice scheme via your employer or, if you are self-employed what the most tax-efficient way to buy or lease your car will be.
Watch words: Benefit-in-kind; salary sacrifice scheme; running costs; OZEV.
