Why is This a Benefit Employees Really
Care About?

Electric car salary sacrifice is one of the UK’s fastest-growing employee benefits. Employers who have launched a scheme see high engagement and uptake, with teams saying this is a benefit they truly value.

With 83% of HR leaders planning to launch an electric car scheme within the next 12 months, it’s quickly becoming a must-have benefit for employers.

It’s not just about driving electric - it’s about aligning with what people care about. Deloitte research shows two in ten younger employees have already changed jobs to work for businesses that share their environmental values.

Employees save 20–50% on the car they love, like a Tesla Model 3 or Kia Niro EV from around £350 per month. Every car on the road helps your team cut their carbon footprint and contribute to your company’s sustainability story.

Attract and Retain Top Talent With Salary
Sacrifice Benefits

Offering meaningful benefits is one of the most effective ways to attract and keep great people. In fact, 59% of employees say they’re more likely to join or stay with an organisation that offers a strong benefits package.

Electric car salary sacrifice stands out because it’s exciting, visible and aspirational - the kind of benefit employees talk about and share with pride. It gives your team access to cars they love, at prices they couldn’t get anywhere else, while showing that your company genuinely cares about sustainability and employee wellbeing.

By linking reward and responsibility, you strengthen engagement, reinforce your employer brand and make your business stand out as a place where people want to work and stay. The result is better retention, stronger culture and lower recruitment costs.
