It’s not rocket science that this has gone when the BiK for salary sacrifice and company car drivers is at 1% if they choose an electric car, hence manufacturers can’t keep up with the demand. Although the BiK rises to 2% next year, it still makes getting an electric car a no brainer if you qualify for one of the above as so many drivers do.
Anecdotally, our outsourced facilities manager had a high end Audi A6 Estate company car, now he has an M3SR. Saves him over £400 a month in BiK & his firm paid for his home charger and all the charging he needs anywhere in Europe. He loves the huge cash saving, moans about the charging stops.
In life, it's not who you know that's important, it's how your wife found out.
