Electric car lease review: the Tesla Model X 100kWh

Luxury electric car leasing from Tesla 

So what do you think to the Tesla? Would you really look for this on your next leasing deal? In light of the growing levels of company car tax, anti-diesel policies and growth in charging points, running an electric vehicle is becoming easier. You may have noticed adverts on the television, online and even the radio that are pushing great knowledge on the “greener” cars and vans which are available to purchase or lease.

The changing climate across cities

For certain drivers in city areas like London, Liverpool, Birmingham and Manchester, there are either plans to create congestion areas or there are already charging systems in place. Commuting, or logistic exercises, in highly populated areas is fast becoming an expensive endeavour for individuals and businesses. Manufacturers are now reacting to the political and economic challenges with petrol-hybrid options, which offer a half-way house solution on the green vehicles.

This enables the driver to use a petrol engine on its own, mix the engine/electric elements or run the vehicle solely on the electric contingent.

While more expensive that their petrol and diesel counterparts, they will either save you money on congestion charges or will offer considerable company car tax savings. Pushing further, completely electric vehicles offer a complete solution but, unless you pay for the more expensive options like the Tesla, are you actually going to get a positive driving experience? Additionally, you also need to consider the range on most electric vehicles, as a 250-300 mile range is not going to be ideal for long-distance travellers.

As time moves forward, more and more options will be offered to the public, and company car market, which are both practical and affordable.

Or so we hope.
