EV salary sacrifice

You'll make the most savings on EVs if you go through a B2B scheme like salary sacrifice.

Why EV salary sacrifice?

Did you know around 80% of EVs on the road in the UK are business-owned. This includes EVs on the road through business leasing and EV salary sacrifice schemes.

That's because the manufacturers themselves can't offer the exclusive discounts available through government incentives and schemes, such as EV salary sacrifice.

Here's a sneak peek at some of the cars and pricing available with Octopus EV salary sacrifice. If you're after something different, don't worry! We've got access to all EVs on the market, just click 'Get started' on any of the cars below, fill in a few details, and one of our EV experts will be in touch.

To join our electric vehicle salary sacrifice scheme, we first need to sign up your company and you'll then be contacted by our awesome team to help you join. If you need more information on all the in and outs of a salary sacrifice scheme the details from HMRC are found here.

We love answering this. It costs you nothing. Our salary sacrifice scheme is totally free for employers to set up.

It’s a win-win. You get to supercharge your employee benefits package and your team can save up to 40% when they switch to an electric vehicle.

We make it hassle-free for employers to manage the scheme, with our digital-first approach.

Through our dedicated HR dashboard, employers can get all the information about the scheme. This makes it simple to launch, approve orders, complete tax and carbon reporting and so much more.


Employees make savings on their tax and personal benefits when they switch to an electric car under our salary sacrifice scheme.

The payments come straight out of the employee's gross pay, which reduces their monthly salary. Because of this reduction in salary, there is a subsequent reduction on income tax and national insurance payments.

Money that you'd normally never see (because it goes straight out of your pay to HMRC) actually goes straight towards your electric car payments.

If you were leasing a car out of your net monthly payments (your salary after tax), you'd be paying your taxes and paying your car payments too. That's why it works out so much cheaper to get an electric vehicle through our salary sacrifice scheme.
