Key2Lease Salary Sacrifice Car Leasing
Discover how our salary sacrifice scheme can help you and your employees save up to 60% on electric car leasing, all while supporting your company's sustainability goals.?
What Is a Salary Sacrifice Car Scheme?
A salary sacrifice car scheme allows employees to exchange a portion of their gross salary for a brand-new leased vehicle. This arrangement reduces both Income Tax and National Insurance contributions, making it more cost-effective than traditional personal leasing options. Opting for electric vehicles (EVs) amplifies these savings due to lower Benefit-in-Kind (BIK) tax rates.
Benefits for Employers
- Cost-Neutral Implementation: No setup fees or ongoing management costs.
- National Insurance Savings: Reduced employer NICs and the ability to reclaim up to 50% VAT on lease payments and 100% on maintenance services.
- Streamlined Administration: We handle everything from credit applications to vehicle delivery and ongoing support.
- Customizable Options: Tailor the scheme to fit your company's needs, including vehicle type, emission levels, and contract terms.
- Sustainability Goals: Promote your Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) initiatives by encouraging electric vehicle adoption.
- Grey Fleet Management: Enhance duty of care by reducing reliance on employee-owned vehicles for business use.
