Electric Car Leasing
As the world shifts towards more sustainable modes of transportation, electric car leasing is rapidly gaining popularity. Check out our electric car leasing deals below.
The adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) is growing, driven by environmental concerns, government incentives, cheaper overall driving costs and advancements in technology.
Many people are new to EVs, so below we explain the ins and outs of electric car leasing, covering everything from its benefits to the different leasing options available.
What is Electric Car Leasing?
Electric car leasing is a financial arrangement that allows you to drive a new electric vehicle without the long-term commitment of purchasing it outright. Instead of buying the car, you pay a fixed monthly fee to use it for a set period, typically between 2 to 4 years. At the end of the lease term, you return the car to the leasing company, with the option to lease a new vehicle.
There are two primary types of electric car leasing:
Personal Contract Hire (PCH): This option is designed for private individuals. You lease the car for personal use, with the monthly payments covering the vehicle's depreciation over the lease term. At the end of the contract, you simply return the car without any obligation to purchase it.
Business Contract Hire (BCH): Tailored for companies, this leasing option allows businesses to provide employees with electric vehicles for work-related purposes. BCH can offer additional financial benefits, such as tax deductions and VAT recovery, making it a cost-effective solution for fleet management
The Benefits of Electric Car Leasing
Leasing an electric car with Stable Vehicle Contracts comes with a multitude of advantages, making it an appealing choice for both individuals and businesses. Here are some key benefits:
Lower Initial Costs: Unlike buying a car, leasing requires a lower upfront payment. This makes it more accessible to those who might not have the capital for a large purchase.
Predictable Monthly Payments: Our leasing deals provide a clear understanding of monthly expenses, aiding in better financial planning.
Maintenance and Warranty: Our lease agreements offer optional maintenance packages and come with full manufacturer warranties, reducing the worry about repair costs.
Reduced Emissions: Driving an electric car significantly lowers your carbon footprint compared to traditional petrol or diesel vehicles.
Government Incentives: In the UK, there are various incentives for electric vehicle users, such as grants and reduced road tax, which can further lower the overall cost of leasing. Salary Sacrifice is a scheme for employees and employers to further reduce overall costs.
Modern Features: Leasing allows you to drive the latest models equipped with the newest technology, ensuring you benefit from advancements in EV performance and safety.
Frequent Upgrades: With shorter lease terms, you can switch to a new model more frequently, staying ahead with the latest innovations.

Why Should I Lease An Electric Car?
There are several reasons to consider leasing an electric car through Stable Vehicle Contracts, whether for personal use or business purposes. Leasing an electric car offers significant financial flexibility. The lower initial costs and predictable monthly payments help manage budgets more effectively. For businesses, leasing can improve cash flow management, as funds are not tied up in depreciating assets.
Choosing an electric vehicle is a proactive step towards reducing environmental impact. Leasing makes this choice more accessible, enabling more people to contribute to a greener future. Businesses can also enhance their corporate social responsibility profile by incorporating electric vehicles into their fleet. Leasing often includes comprehensive optional maintenance packages, meaning less hassle and worry about the upkeep of the vehicle. Additionally, a full manufacturer warranty ensures that any issues are addressed without additional costs.
Is It Better to Lease an Electric Car via Personal Contract Hire or Business Contract Hire?
The decision between Personal Contract Hire (PCH) and Business Contract Hire (BCH) depends on your specific needs and circumstances.
Personal Contract Hire (PCH)
PCH is ideal for individuals who want the flexibility of driving a new car without the long-term commitment of ownership. The process is straightforward, with fixed monthly payments that cover depreciation and often include maintenance and servicing. At the end of the lease term, you simply return the car without worrying about its resale value.
Business Contract Hire (BCH)
BCH offers significant tax advantages, such as reclaiming VAT on lease payments and deducting the cost as a business expense. For businesses, leasing allows for efficient fleet management, providing employees with reliable and environmentally friendly vehicles. Adopting electric vehicles can enhance a company's image as a sustainable and forward-thinking organisation.
Electric car leasing is an excellent option for those looking to embrace modern mobility solutions without the long-term financial burden of ownership. Whether through Personal Contract Hire (PCH) for individuals or Business Contract Hire (BCH) for companies, leasing offers a range of benefits, including cost efficiency, environmental impact, and access to the latest technology.
The shift towards electric vehicles is supported by government incentives and a growing infrastructure, making now an ideal time to consider leasing an electric car. By choosing to lease, you not only enjoy the perks of driving a new and eco-friendly vehicle but also contribute to a sustainable future and cheaper running costs.
As the electric vehicle market continues to evolve, leasing remains a flexible and attractive option, ensuring you stay ahead with the latest advancements while managing your finances effectively. Whether for personal use or business purposes, electric car leasing is a smart, sustainable choice for modern mobility.
