Government Support
One of the reasons behind the popularity of EVs is the government support packages available, for example the OZEV grant. The government has released a huge host of incentives to get people to buy electric cars. Whether it’s 0% road tax or 0% gift in kind tax on an EV company car.
There is even a discount on brand new EVs (up to £32,000 in value). For cars, you could get 35% or up to £1,500. For small vans, you can get up to 35% or up to £2,500. For large vans, you could get 20% or up to £5,000.
The government has also released a grant from the Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) which subsides the cost of chargers used to transmit electricity to your EV, contributing £350 towards a home or workplace charger (home charger grant only available until April 2022). The good news is Plug&Drive is an approved installer under this grant, so we will be able to help your business.
If you can combine all these grants and discounts, you could save thousands of pounds throughout the vehicle’s lifetime.
