The UK government has supercharged the switch to electric vehicles with a brand-new £650 million grant scheme, offering drivers up to £3,750 off eligible new EVs. Starting 16 July 2025, this initiative makes zero-emission driving more affordable than ever—helping households, businesses, and fleets transition to cleaner transport.
How the grant works:
✅ Up to £3,750 off for the greenest, most sustainably manufactured EVs
✅ £1,500 off for models meeting key environmental standards
✅ Available on new EVs priced under £37,000
✅ Applies to private purchases, leases & salary sacrifice schemes
Why it’s a game-changer:
🔋 Massive savings: Combine the grant with salary sacrifice schemes, and drivers could save over £7,500 per year on a new EV.
⚡ Faster adoption: Over 50 eligible models are included, with manufacturers held to strict net-zero commitments.
🌍 Cleaner future: Supports the UK’s 2030 petrol/diesel phase-out, cutting emissions and running costs.
Charge with confidence
With over 82,000 public chargepoints nationwide—and a new one installed every 30 minutes—EV drivers can easily power up at home, at work, or on the go. The UK’s rapidly expanding charging network means range anxiety is a thing of the past!
This funding runs until 2028/29, so now’s the time to make the change and drive electric for less.
