If I was going to get an EV next time then I think I’d strongly favour getting one via Motability. You can get better / more expensive EVs on the scheme than you can get ICE cars, plus you get the home charger. Also, you are protected from all the factors that are currently deterring many private buyers from getting them. If the choice is to remain with a petrol car, I think I’m leaning towards leaving the scheme, but I wouldn’t feel compelled to buy a brand new car.
Motability is definitely the only way I would have ever considered getting an EV, which was a positive no no up to two months ago, but other needs and lack of alternative options and falling in love with the Ioniq 6 was the overriding factor.
Unfortunately Motability is the only option for a lot of us on DLA/PIP, as they have the Monopoly on the benefit linked system, which is the best system available for most of us.
