Getting an EV through work?
Salary sacrifice can cut the cost of a new electric car by a third or more, because you pay from gross pay. Use the calculator on any car to see your figure.
How it works
Compare real costs
Each car shows company-car tax per month at your rate, using the published P11D value where we have it.
Go to the maker
Found one you like? Shortlist it, compare up to three, then visit the manufacturer for a configuration and quote.
How is company-car tax worked out?
Taxable benefit = P11D value × the appropriate percentage for zero-emission cars (4% in 2026/27, 5% in 2027/28, 7% in 2028/29 and 9% in 2029/30). You pay that benefit × your marginal income-tax rate. We show a full tax year divided by 12.
What is the P11D value?
The list price including VAT and delivery, plus factory options, but excluding first registration fee and road tax. Where a maker hasn't published one we use the list price and label it as an estimate. Options you add will increase it.
Why is the £100k–£125k band 60%?
Between £100,000 and £125,140 you lose £1 of tax-free personal allowance for every £2 you earn. That makes the effective rate 60% (67.5% in Scotland). Salary sacrifice reduces your taxable pay, so it can be especially valuable here.
How accurate is this?
It is a guide, not tax advice. Prices, P11D values and launch dates change; check with the manufacturer and your employer before you commit. Figures are a researched snapshot and every key number links to its source.
