Why Choose Electric Car Sales In London?
The London Ultra Low Emissions Zone (ULEZ) as well as the London Congestion Charge were both thin ends of the wedge, introducing ways to make vehicles driving in or around urban areas pay more. These sort of schemes were increasingly common around Europe long before London adopted them, but recent years have seen other UK cities following suit. This has made renting or buying electric an especially attractive proposition because electric vehicles are all exempt from every single clean air zone, congestion charge or similar, meaning that they save you extra money in addition to all the other financial reasons which make driving electric so attractive.
WHAT ARE THE COST BENEFITS OF ELECTRIC CARS?
- Exempt from every known low emissions zone charge and congestion charge
- Exempt from road tax
- Only 2% Benefit In Kind Company Car Tax
- Grants available to install charging points
- Cost per mile far cheaper than equivalent petrol or diesel
- Fewer moving parts means lower maintenance costs
- Batteries typically have VERY generous warranty periods
So, those are the cost benefits of running an electric car, so if you could avoid the new purchase cost, they’d be an absolute bargain right? That’s where buying a nearly new electric car hire comes in. Not only do you dodge the full purchase price entirely, you also avoid that big hit of depreciation suffered by every vehicle in its first year.
