Introduction

W

elcome to the August edition of the Norton Way Corporate Newsletter. In this issue, we explore our growing range of electric and hybrid models – both current & upcoming.

Switching to an electric - or hybrid - vehicle means playing your part in reducing harmful CO2 emissions through automotive activity. All-electric models emit zero CO2 and use no fuel, taking their power from an electricity source. This means you can benefit from improved running costs, exemption from road tax, and even cheaper maintenance costs. Plus, with government grants helping make purchasing as affordable as possible, you can invest in an electric car today for a cost that is competitive and manageable.

For company car drivers, battery-electric cars are subject to a lower company car BIK tax, which for battery-electric cars registered after the 6th April 2020 is 0%. This increases to 1% in 2021/22 and to 2% in 2022/23. All hybrid powertrains also benefit from lower BIK tax rates and still have the potential to save you thousands of pounds compared to a traditional petrol or diesel equivalent.

If you would like any more information on any of the models mentioned for your business, please get in touch with our corporate team at corporateteam@nortonway.com.
