EV Lease/PCP & 0% finance offers
Discussion
I thought it would be useful if we could have a thread with any decent lease/PCP deals, or low/0% EV offers anyone finds.
WE got 0% in 2020 on my wife’s EQC and I suspect there will have to be some creative offers in the next year for manufacturers to shift EVs in volume with the current price of electricity and interest rate levels.

With the lead times as they are it's still very much a seller's market. The manufacturers, dealers and lease companies would have zero interest (see what I did there 
) in being competitive financially at the moment.
The only exception seems to be Tesla who have started offering discounts and 6000 miles free charging.

Yep, some actual competition in the market and a falling stock price will cause that.) in being competitive financially at the moment. The only exception seems to be Tesla who have started offering discounts and 6000 miles free charging.
From a leasing perspective prices are still being kept artificially high in order to support ridiculous salary sacrifice gross costs as far as I can tell. £1k+ per month over 3 years/36k miles on vehicles listing around £60k is frankly ridiculous.

Although to be fair they did put there prices up £9000 over the last year.Edited by SWoll on Thursday 29th December 10:40

Model 3.Edited by SWoll on Thursday 29th December 10:40
Although it looks like only £8.5K.

I think the biggest increase was on the Model 3 LR which was £49,990 earlier this year and it is now £57,490, so a £7.5k increase. There were a few for sale yesterday with delivery mileage for £52450, today the cheapest is £53,960.Although it looks like only £8.5K.

That’s weird, been keeping an eye out for that knowing it was on the US site but hadn’t seen it before.
Bit late now as it needs to be delivered before 31/12
I looked at the Model Y deals in early November here in Switzerland and Tesla were offering 0.99% leasing (instead of the standard 3.99%) but no other incentives for delivery from stock before Dec 31st. Then on December 17th the offer improved to a £4k price reduction, 10'000km of free supercharger and the same leasing rate, but only on available inventory.Bit late now as it needs to be delivered before 31/12
I need the tow-bar option, dislike white cars and prefer smaller rims due to the state of the country roads around my French weekend place, so my choice was somewhat limited. But there is now a 300km old Model Y (LR) parked outside the house here in Burgundy, in solid black and with 19" wheels. I'll clean up and sell my blue 2021 60k kms Model 3LR sometime in the spring.
Yeah, think the deposit has been left out of that pricing?
The e-up has a small battery (usable of 32.3 kWh) but it's efficient. Driven carefully in the summer you'll get 180 miles and in the winter on a motorway (65mph) you'll get 110. I just drove up to Newcastle and when I stopped at Wetherby for a charge I'd done 101 miles and still had 22 remaining. The biggest downside is very slow DC charging. Officially it's 50kW but the charge curve is pretty crap so you typically don't see more than 35kW. Might not be a problem if you don't plan to do long trips.
I've had mine 18 months and had zero niggles, it's been a good little car (I paid £4500 total over 2 years on a PCH). In fact, it's been so easy and reliable that I'm going to buy it off VWFS for my elderly mum when I come to switch in a few months time.

I'd be leasing through my company so ex VAT but the Zoe is £1,700.52 down and £141 a month.
The Up is £622 down and £207 a month. They work out about the same.
I seen the Zoe today driving down the road and just can't do that to my wife.
Think I'll give the VW place a ring tomorrow.
Do you have a link to that E-UP deal?The Up is £622 down and £207 a month. They work out about the same.

My Seat Mii electric (same as the e up) costs me £162 per month, and I have just extended it for a further 12 months at the same price.
imo its perfect for what it is, fun enough to drive, nippy as hell, mature feeling rather than tinny, costs buttons to run it, in some ways its the best car I've had.
I get 100 miles in winter, 160-180 in the summer.

I think it's the perfect application for an EV, small City cars, that never really go more than 50 miles from home, charge up on the drive so are always full every time you come to use them. Plus I really need to get the other half driving and I think a Small City EV is probably going to be the easiest driving experience you can have.
Don't get me wrong as per another thread, if I can get work to sign up to Salary Sacrifice, I'd love a Taycan too, but even that is less than perfect.
