Is it more cost-effective to buy an electric car rather than a combustion-powered one?
Buying an electric car is a choice that is economically advantageous in the long term. Its operating costs are much lower than those of an equivalent combustion-powered vehicle,and there are services that help you optimise your daily budget even further.
Purchase assistance
The purchase of an electric vehicle may be eligible for various financial incentives and tax benefits. This includes the Electric Car Grant* and low rates of company car tax.
Renault guides you step by step, from ordering your vehicle to installing your home charging solutions.
Cost savings over time
Travelling 60 miles in an electric vehicle costs, on average, one-third as much as in a petrol-powered vehicle. Electricity is a more affordable energy source than fossil fuels, especially if you charge your vehicle at home during off-peak hours ¹. This way, you can keep your expenses down with each charge, without compromising your mobility.
Simplified maintenance
The electric motor has fewer mechanical parts, which reduces the risk of breakdowns and the need for maintenance:
- No oil changes
- No timing belt
- Fewer filters and fluids

- When you're on the go, the Charge Pass charge card helps you access a vast network of public charging stations at preferential rates.
