Why choose our
EV salary sacrifice
scheme for your business?

Our electric vehicle scheme saves employers and employees thousands of pounds every year, while helping them reduce carbon emissions. No deposit. No set up costs!

Employees exchange a portion of their salary for the use of a salary sacrifice electric car. They get to drive a brand-new vehicle with maintenance included, while saving on tax and National Insurance. Employers benefit by paying less in salary and employers’ NI contributions.

Roll public charging costs and the cost of a home charger into your scheme courtesy of our partnerships with Paua and PodPoint. Drivers save up to 62% on public charging and home chargers, depending on their tax brackets. Discover the savings on public charging credits using the Paua calculator here.

Instead of relying on a single lender, our multi-bid funding solution pitches every vehicle request across our extensive panel of competing funders, unlocking access to hundreds of brand-new vehicles from leading nationwide manufacturers at the lowest market rates.

Securing these rock-bottom lease rates means lower monthly salary sacrifice amounts for your staff. This drives higher employee uptake while multiplying your business’s corporate Class 1A National Insurance savings. Across a typical three-year cycle, this competitive sourcing strategy can save your wider business ecosystem staggering sums. It can amount to hundreds of thousands, depending on the number of vehicles you run.

Your employer salary sacrifice questions answered

Got more questions?

You can set your company’s criteria for joining and decide which employees you would like to offer the scheme to. Our requirements are as follows:

  • Full-time or part-time employee over 18 years of age.
  • Salary is above the National Minimum Wage (NMW) threshold after the sacrificed salary has been deducted. We recommend that a minimum salary of around £30,000 pa be eligible.
  • They are eligible for the scheme’s car insurance.
  • Their contract of employment is for longer than the salary sacrifice lease and they can commit to the full term of the lease contract. Employees on fixed term contracts can still be eligible for the scheme provided the contract is longer than the proposed salary sacrifice agreement.

For full eligibility criteria see our salary sacrifice FAQs.

The website was easy to use, with a great range of makes, plenty of models to choose from and nice optional extras. The process has been smooth from start to finish, with very competitive pricing and lots of flexibility. I’d definitely recommend Wessex Fleet to anyone looking to go down the salary sacrifice route.
