If you salary sacrifice in a big company it is a much higher price as the leasing companies and employers add all sorts of insurances , tax , protection insurance (if you leave the company they are stuck with a car so they add this on ) maintenance , tyres , and because the the Tesla is classed as a high value ev , they won’t even allow you to get the car if you have any points on your license. I got the model 3 highland for £810 salary sacrifice. As a 40% taxpayer I’m paying £589 for the car.

I’ve spent less than £500 to cover over 25000 miles over the past 2.5 years. The lease payments including all servicing and tyres on my Tesla also work out less than £350 per month with zero deposit.

An interesting comparison. Of course, the government is happy to allow their tax take from fuel duty to go to almost nothing for now…to get us all to switch to an EV. But if you factor in the fact that it cannot afford to lose this tax/duty income over the longer term, they are going to have to find a way to make the EV motorist pay more. Then the comparison may not look as evenly balanced as today’s figures might suggest.
