ONE of the first companies to specialise in leasing electric vehicles is now able to offer SME fleet customers the option of a salary sacrifice programme.
Offering EV expertise since 2008, DriveElectric says this long-standing EV knowledge, plus its dedicated EV consultants supported by tax and compliance specialists, can assist SME businesses to promote salary sacrifice schemes to employees, and can organise EV test drive events.
DriveElectric also offers a secure portal for employers and their employees to order, manage and track their EV.
DriveElectric says cost reductions offered by salary sacrifice compared with a personal lease for a 40% tax rate employee include a £260 monthly saving on a Tesla Model Y, or a £319 monthly saving on a Porsche Taycan.
Salary sacrifice enables employers to attract, reward and retain the best employees, says DriveElectric, who will manage the entire process, with expert HR, policy and tax support.
It can also supply a home charger if needed, which can be included in the salary sacrifice package, as well as provide support with solutions for workplace charging, solar, vehicle to grid, and energy management and optimisation via its sister company CrowdCharge.
Salary sacrifice offers a wide range of compelling benefits. Bringing down the monthly cost of electric cars helps more drivers make the switch to EVs. This in turn reduces drivers’ vehicle running costs and helps employers to offer attractive benefits for their staff. Reducing emissions also accelerates an organisation’s progress to Net Zero. And this is all backed up by DriveElectric’s unique 15 years of expertise with electric vehicles.
