No deposit required.
Save between 30-60% on the monthly lease cost.
Fully comprehensive insurance, servicing & maintenance, breakdown cover and tyre replacement are all included as part of the monthly lease cost.
Anywhere between 30-60% on the monthly lease cost of an electric car. The percentage of savings available to you is dependent on your salary, subsequent tax bracket and the Benefit in Kind (BiK) tax rate.
Even if you qualify for 30% saving, it still equates to £100s of savings every month.
The BiK tax rate is the amount HMRC charges companies to offer their employees benefits in place of monetary compensation. The UK Government confirmed in 2022 that EVs will only have to pay the ultra-low BiK rate of 2% until 2025, before rising by 1% annually until 2028. The lowest BiK rate for traditional petrol or diesel cars, in comparison, is a whopping 20%.
Salary sacrifice is essentially a payment structure for leasing an electric car. Every month, a small portion of your gross monthly salary goes towards leasing a brand new electric vehicle.
The key is that the monthly payment for the lease is taken from your salary before tax. This means you pay less Income Tax and reduce your National Insurance Contributions, maximising your take-home pay and getting a brand new electric car in the process.
It’s also an employee benefit, which means your employer has to implement the scheme before you can enjoy the massive savings on offer. It’s completely cost-neutral for employers to implement and helps businesses achieve increasingly stringent ESG targets – there’s more on the benefits to employers below.

That’s right. It’s completely cost-neutral to introduce the The Green Car loveelectric.cars’ salary sacrifice scheme. The modest commission is built into the monthly lease cost displayed, meaning there’s no financial strain put upon the company accounts. We charge the driver 2% of the vehicle’s value into the gross cost of the lease. Secondly, we bill the employer a 1.5% admin fee – but this small fee is offset by the employer’s National Insurance Contribution savings, so the company never loses a penny for implementing the benefit. Plus, everyone involved with implementing the benefit gets access to the 30-60% EV savings too.
The job market is volatile. If you’re looking for a great way to add value to the workplace – without increasing outgoings – salary sacrifice is a perfect solution. This employee benefit can save drivers £10,000s over the course of a lease: a saving they wouldn’t otherwise get unless working for the company. It’s an incredible proposition when hiring for new talent, retaining current staff members and getting employees engaged and motivated with their work.
loveelectric.cars has built this employee benefit from the ground up, ensuring it not only makes sense for drivers – but for the business too. That’s why The Green Car has chosen to partner with the industry-leading salary sacrifice provider. Every lease includes comprehensive Early Termination Protection for the employer as standard. That means no nasty hidden charges or unexpected bills that employers may get with other salary sacrifice providers. Just one neat monthly price that includes everything drivers and employers need.
Salary sacrifice is an all-in-one package. The monthly payment doesn’t just cover the cost of the car, but everything else you need to keep the wheels rolling.
No need to worry about replacement tyres or spending hours on the phone to insurance companies.
Salary sacrifice offers complete peace-of-mind motoring for every driver.
