Company cars

Electric cars are changing the world of work, just as they’re changing all aspects of the modern automotive landscape. What does it mean for your company car, the van you drive for work or the fleet of vehicles your business runs? That’s what we’re here to explain.

In our company-car section, we look at all the issues around plug-in cars and business. What are the pros and cons of choosing an electric car or plug-in hybrid as your next company car? What are the tax implications of switching to an electric car or electric van fleet? How can businesses and employees best negotiate the issue of charging? All this and more is covered in the pages below.

We want to make your switch to using plug-in cars for business as simple as possible. You may not even have considered electric cars and vans as a viable option for the company you own or work for, but the fact is they’re probably more suitable and cost-effective than most people think.

Better still, electric-car technology, charging infrastructure and the incentives to use EVs for business are improving all the time. There'll certainly be those for whom the time for change is not now, but it’s definitely coming and we’ll help you decide when to flick the switch.
