Lease agreement terms usually include:

  • A maximum mileage per annum
  • To keep and return the car in good condition
  • Make sure the car is used within the insurance terms
  • Contract provisions about giving the car back early or changing employment

Fleetdrive Electric has already helped 100’s of UK businesses make the switch to low emission company vehicles, saving them money and also benefiting the environment.

Its latest scheme focuses on ultra-low emission vehicles as part of a salary sacrifice scheme, providing employers and employees with everything that they need to make the change and reduce the cost of car ownership.

What is salary sacrifice and why choose low emission?

Salary sacrifice for cars means that employees get a company car by giving up part of their salary – it really is as simple as that. However, Fleetdrive’s ultra-low emission salary sacrifice scheme highlights the fact that if very low emission vehicles are chosen, this can reduce the cost of owning a car.

Vehicles are leased by the employer; the employee agrees to keep their car in good condition and return it in line with the lease agreement.

Fleetdrive Electric provide advice regarding amendments to existing employment contracts to make sure that both parties are happy – that the employee is willing to give up part of their salary and also agree to the terms of the lease agreement.

Mike Potter, director of Fleetdrive, is passionate about the benefits of ultra-low emission vehicles for businesses and also salary sacrifice schemes. He said;

“We have already helped many companies across the UK make the change to low and ultra-low emission vehicles. We make the transition as easy as possible, with our expert team on-hand to offer advice and guidance for both employers and employees.

“In all instances, Fleetdrive Electric provides employers with comprehensive terms for amendments that are needed to any existing employment contract terms to make sure that all of the i’s are dotted and t’s are crossed – we also offer help choosing the vehicle that is perfect for their requirements.

“We find that offering employees a good salary sacrifice is a great perk and helps not only attract but retain good members of staff.”
