We've been asked again and again about 'salary sacrifice' and electric company cars since we last covered them in 2021. Leasing vehicles rather than owning cars continues to grow in popularity with between 20-30% of drivers in the UK now opting to lease a car.

Salary Sacrifice Schemes for electric vehicles, which allow employees to pay for a vehicle lease pre-tax combined with a much smaller Benefit-in-Kind tax rate compared to petrol or diesel cars sounds appealing! So we went to Octopus Electric Vehicles to get the lowdown! @fullychargedshow @EverythingElectricShow
