More and more, UK drivers say they want to switch to electric, especially with the current pressure on fuel prices. Companies which participate in this scheme can help their employees drive away with anything from a Vauxhall Corsa-e, Tesla, Renault Zoe, BMW i3, Hyundai Ioniq, Kia e-Niro, Honda e, to even a Porsche Taycan with no deposit and there are no additional costs for maintenance, servicing, and breakdown cover.
Loveelectric is aiming to eliminate the hassle of traditional company car schemes. Its platform allows employees to handle the simple leasing process themselves. Any business that has been trading profitably for two years or more can sign up free to enable their staff to enjoy the benefits. Their new car can be for personal or business use.
The company was founded by entrepreneur, Steve Tigar, formerly CEO of Money Dashboard, the UK’s first and award-winning personal finance app.
“We want to see electric cars become the norm and easily accessible for everyone” said Mr Tigar. “A leased car from Loveelectric costs around half the price of one which is taken out by an individual person. There is zero-cost for employers, and we help them at every step. I believe organisations can be a force for good which is why we’re in the process of becoming a B Corp2. It’s about making a difference, and with the climate emergency, we all need to make that difference right now. We want to support all businesses to empower their staff to make the switch to electric. Our Drive Change campaign is designed to raise awareness of the difference electric cars make compared to those which run on petrol and diesel. We are committed to helping thousands of employees switch in the next 18 months, collectively saving them millions. What’s more, with many firms facing difficulties in recruitment and retention, Loveelectric can play a huge part in maintaining staff loyalty.
