Flex Model Choice announced by Europcar Mobility Group
Europcar Mobility Group UK has developed Flex Model Choice to support businesses make the move to electric vehicles.
Flex Model Choice offers businesses the opportunity to book specific makes and models from Europcar’s electric and hybrid fleet for three to 12 months at a fixed monthly rate.
This enables employers to accurately allocate vehicles and forecast Benefit-in-Kind tax expenses.
Tom Middleditch, head of electric mobility at Europcar, said: “The pace of change in electric vehicle technology is impressive; every new model that comes out brings better battery life and charging performance as well as a host of other driver benefits. The challenge for fleet managers is what to commit to – and when.
“Flex Model Choice gives businesses access to the latest BEV and PHEV models, without the long-term commitments and early exit penalties of leasing. Renting also means they will have access to the latest electric vehicle technology, rather than being stuck with a model for three or more years that is quickly surpassed.
“And, crucially, by being able to book the specific make and model, it is ideal for salary sacrifice schemes where the BiK needs to be forecast accurately.”
Vehicles currently available with Flex Model Choice include: Ford Kuga PHEV; BYD Seal U PHEV; Jeep Avenger BEV; Hyundai Kona BEV; Ford Explorer BEV; BMW iX2 BEV; and Peugeot E-3008 BEV.
