Benefits of car salary sacrifice for employees

An electric car salary sacrifice scheme makes driving a brand-new electric car easy and affordable for employees. There are no upfront costs or credit checks, and insurance, road tax, and maintenance is bundled into one simple monthly payment. As the cost comes straight out of salary before taxation, Income Tax and National Insurance will be lowered.

Unlike some finance deals, there’s no large deposit or down payment required before you start driving.

You don’t have to worry about residual values or having to sell the vehicle when you want to change.

Costs will be deducted from your pre-taxed salary. Meaning your taxable income is reduced.

Road tax, insurance and maintenance including tyres and windscreen damage are all included within your monthly payments.

As the lease is managed through your company, there’s no impact on your credit rating.

Car Salary Sacrifice FAQs

Most employers can set up a scheme easily via a standard amendment to an employee's contract. To join the scheme, employees typically just need to have passed their probation period, be on a permanent full-time contract, and hold a valid UK driving licence.

A car allowance simply adds a cash lump sum to your salary, which is fully hit by Income Tax and National Insurance before you use it to run a vehicle. Salary sacrifice allows you to exchange a portion of your pre-tax income to cover the car and all its running costs, dropping your taxable income and slashing your tax bill.

Setting up and launching the scheme is 100% free and cost-neutral for your business, and it can even lower your overall employer National Insurance liability. For employees, using pre-tax income unlocks massive lifestyle savings of up to 60% compared to standard personal leasing or PCP finance.
