Company Cars - EV's + BIK
Discussion
Question for the PH Director types out there.
My company car Nissan Leaf is pencilled in for delivery in Feb 20. I'm aware that on and after April 2020 government have changed the policy to push EV cars therefore BIK will be £0.
But is this still true if my car is delivered before this date. I won't be stuck under old policy tax bands will I?

I have a PHEV (530e) and the BIK rules change by tax year, so next year the tax liability goes down from 16% to 8% I'm not fully sure about full electric however reading up on full electric then registered date does seem to make a difference:

30k in an EV...this will be interesting
Very practical. I do 120 a day to commute. The battery has a range of 240 miles at 4kWh/mile. I've average 4.2 in my 60k+ in my i3?I charge every night atm and I'm hoping this might be every other day?
Anyone who thinks they need to have an effective range over 300 miles is kidding themselves. No one drives that far, regularly with no break....

Ok so it'll be down to 200 mile range as it might go down to 3.5/6 kWh/mile.
But in its defence it has heated seats and steering wheel......
But it's a tool for me to go back and forth to work at little to no cost to me (I also get my mileage too)

Best I can find is the Tesla M3 LR, which in winter, with a head wind, can manage with two supercharger stops (according to A Better Route Planner) totalling 48 minutes.
The i-pace would, allegedly, require over 2 hours of en route charging according to the same site. That's ridiculous and totally untenable.
