Reply To: Why are so many EV’s leaving the scheme lately.

    From what I’ve heard we can expect the return of the Ioniq 6 in the next half year. The Elroq will return when the order book is less full but I’d expect both cars to be more expensive than when they left. For new EVs there’s the two IMs (5 & 6) but it’s unclear whether they’ll get to the scheme in a hurry or whether they see if the fleet sales pick up to their anticipated demand. If they do join it’s highly unlikely the performance version would as the insurance company would be very reluctant to allow a very high powered EV to be leased to drivers highly unlikely to have the performance training you’d hope a 700+BHP car would need. That said the long range of both cars aren’t slow and nearing 400 mile WLTP range it’s a very desirable option.

    I hope they will, but I would assume the price in their first quarter on Motability will be unpalatable.
