Vauxhall Government Car Scheme

According to Vauxhall’s official website, the car company is the UK’s oldest surviving car brand, with its first model rolling off the production line in 1903. The first electric Vauxhall entered production in 2011 as the Vauxhall Ampera, designed for four people and suitable for daily use and travel. Vauxhall has committed to exclusively offering fully electric cars and vans from 2028, two years ahead of the government's deadline. The introduction of the all-electric Combo-e and Movano-e LCVs completed Vauxhall's range of fully electric vans by the end of 2021. By late 2024, Vauxhall plans to offer electrified versions of their entire portfolio, to transition to a fully electric fleet by 2028. They are also investing £100 million in electric vehicle production in the UK, aiming for their Ellesmere Port plant to achieve carbon neutrality by 2025.

Let’s explore the electric Vauxhalls on the market and those available to lease from The Electric Car Scheme. Government programs like The Electric Car Scheme allow employees to save on the cost of an electric car.

EV salary sacrifice works similarly to the cycle-to-work scheme, lowering your national insurance and income tax contributions in exchange for an employee benefit—in this case, an electric car. Switching to an electric car is a significant way to contribute to net zero, but many people are deterred by the high cost, range anxiety, and concerns about the UK’s charging infrastructure. By offering an electric car scheme at your company, you provide a cost-neutral benefit that gives employees access to an affordable way to switch to electric vehicles, ultimately accelerating our efforts to tackle climate change and encouraging sustainable choices.

Here are the Vauxhall models available for lease through The Electric Car Scheme, offering a blend of performance, innovation, and cutting-edge infotainment features:

  1. Vauxhall Corsa Electric

  2. Vauxhall Mokka Electric

  3. Vauxhall Astra Electric

  4. Vauxhall Vivaro Life Electric

Vauxhall Corsa Electric

The Corsa has been Vauxhall’s best-selling car for many years, with over 2.1 million Corsa’s sold in the UK and 13.5 million sold in Europe since it launched in 1993. Alternatives to the Corsa-e include the Honda E or the Kia Soul EV, which both have distinctive styling and are of a similar size. The Vauxhall Corsa-e is said to have up to 222 miles between charges and can achieve 0-62mph in 7.6 seconds.

What’s the Corsa Electric like to drive?

The Vauxhall Corsa Electric can achieve 222 miles and accelerate 0-62mph in 7.6 seconds - The Electric Car Scheme

This image has been sourced from: Vauxhall Corsa press release

When spending most of your time in urban areas, the Corsa Electric emerges as the top choice among its range of models. Its standout features include silent operation and an automatic gearbox, ideal for city driving. While the suspension is generally soft, it can feel unsettled on smoother roads, especially on roads with potholes or bumps, which may detract from the overall comfort. For a smoother and more refined driving experience, alternatives like the petrol-powered Volkswagen Polo should be considered.

One area where the Vauxhall surpasses the Volkswagen is its impressive 10.8m turning circle, making tight manoeuvres in town or navigating mini roundabouts notably easier. The steering is exceptionally light, aiding in parking on streets or in parking lots. Rear visibility is good, although hindered slightly by the wide rear pillar; however, the car's reversing camera and sensors provide valuable assistance and peace of mind.

The Corsa Electric lacks an option for one-pedal driving. Engaging the regenerative braking mode ('B' mode) slows the car down but does not bring it to a complete stop. On motorways, the Corsa Electric performs admirably despite not being its natural habitat. It offers ample acceleration at mid-range speeds and maintains a relatively quiet cabin during steady cruising, though some wind noise may be noticeable around the front pillar.

Driving on country lanes reveals that while the light steering suited for city driving doesn’t translate well to higher speeds, switching to Sport mode adds needed weight, enhancing the driving feel. The car handles corners adeptly with good grip, instilling confidence, though the steering’s artificial heaviness in Sport mode detracts slightly from the overall experience. Acceleration remains a strong suit, with instant power availability providing a positive driving dynamic. While an eco mode exists, it dampens the driving enjoyment, which might not appeal to enthusiasts.

Space inside the Vauxhall Corsa-e

One of the appealing features of the electric Corsa is its well-designed driving position, allowing drivers to sit quite low for a sportier feel. The headroom is ample for both the driver and front passenger, and the front area is generally spacious. The seat and steering wheel offer extensive manual adjustments in all directions, making it easy to find a comfortable position. However, be cautious when adjusting the seat back as the side-mounted dial is close to the car frame, potentially causing your hand to get squashed.

In terms of storage, the centre console includes a couple of cupholders and a larger square tray below the dash and behind the gear lever. Additional storage is available under the armrest, and the door bins are large enough to accommodate small and medium-sized bottles. The glovebox is less impressive due to the incorporated fuse box, which halves the available space and can be somewhat frustrating.

In the back of the Vauxhall EV, headroom is generally sufficient, preventing most passengers from hitting their heads on the roof, unlike in some comparable models. However, the knee room is limited, which might make passengers feel cramped. If rear legroom is a priority, the Skoda Fabia might be a better choice as it offers ample leg and headroom. The middle rear seat has a floor ridge, further reducing its already limited space, which can be a concern if travelling with five people. Many EVs have batteries in the floor, reducing legroom, but the Corsa Electric avoids this issue as it was initially designed for a conventional engine, resulting in relatively spacious footwells. The ISOFIX points for child seats are hidden behind a zipped pocket, which looks neat but can be impractical. Installing these seats is straightforward, though you might need to raise the rear headrest without moving the front passenger seat. For storage, the rear features good-sized door bins and seat-back pockets suitable for books, magazines, or small devices.

In the petrol version of the Corsa, the boot offers just over 300 litres of storage space, typical for a small hatchback. The electric version, however, sees this reduced to 267 litres due to the batteries, which is still enough for a couple of suitcases but smaller than the 338 litres in the Renault Zoe and the 311 litres in the Peugeot e-208.

A significant lip in the boot can make loading and unloading heavy items more challenging, and the lack of a false floor adds to this difficulty. Folding down the rear seats creates a ridge, making it harder to push items back into the car.

Infotainment and accessories

Like the conventional Corsa, the interior of the electric version is understated and functional rather than eye-catching. A 7.0-inch infotainment screen sits in the centre of the dash, compatible with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. However, the screen’s image quality isn't impressive, and the menus can be confusing, which might lead you to prefer using your smartphone instead. Similarly, the digital driver’s display behind the steering wheel functions adequately but lacks sharp graphics and extensive information.

Despite these drawbacks, the Corsa Electric features a logical layout with physical buttons for essential controls like heating and lane departure warning. This setup simplifies disabling certain features without navigating through complex infotainment menus, catering to drivers who prefer straightforward access to these functions.

Lease a Vauxhall Corsa Electric from The Electric Car Scheme

At The Electric Car Scheme, we have access to the top leasing companies which means employees have access to the best prices available. If you decide to lease an electric Vauxhall Corsa from The Electric Car Scheme, you can be confident that you will achieve the best prices as well as the full 30-60% tax savings on the cost of the car through salary sacrifice.

Lease a Vauxhall Corsa from The Electric Car Scheme for £432 per month

As you can see above, without a salary sacrifice scheme, you would pay £683 a month. However, through The Electric Car Scheme, you can save £273 per month on income tax and £14 on national insurance. This brings the net cost down to £432 per month - over £200 less than the original lease price for a Vauxhall Corsa Electric.

You can calculate your tax savings based on your salary, lease term, estimated mileage and payment schedule by using our personalised quote tool!

Vauxhall Mokka Electric

Trim levels available in the Vauxhall Mokka Electric

The same trim levels are available in all of the Vauxhall electric models, including the Design, GS and Ultimate. You can see the differences in powertrain, battery size, 0-62mph, range and the lease cost if you were to lease the Mokka-e from The Electric Car Scheme.

Trim levelPowertrainBattery Size0-62mphRangeSalary sacrifice lease cost
Design100kW50kWh9.2 seconds209 miles£517 per month
GS100kW50kWh9.2 seconds209 miles£456 per month
GS115kW54kWh9.0 seconds252 miles£506 per month
Ultimate100kW50kWh9.2 seconds209 miles£454 per month

What’s the Mokka-e like to drive?

As with most EVs, the Mokka Electric excels in urban settings. Its quick acceleration and light controls make it easy to navigate traffic and quickly move away from lights. Additionally, it offers a softer ride than the regular Mokka, effectively handling potholes and bumps. In contrast, the Hyundai Kona Electric has a much firmer suspension. While the regenerative braking might take some time to get used to, and the small rear window can make parallel parking challenging, the standard rear camera and parking sensors are very useful.

The Vauxhall Mokka Electric is available to lease from The Electric Car Scheme

This image has been sourced from Vauxhall’s official website

On the motorway, the Mokka Electric stands out as one of the more refined vehicles in its class. It remains particularly quiet at high speeds, with only minor wind noise. The throttle responds immediately, though it doesn't provide the strong accelerative push that some other electric SUVs do, so ambitious overtaking manoeuvres may require more planning. Visibility is good, and the quiet cabin and comfortable suspension make long journeys pleasant, though rear passengers might find the space a bit cramped after a while.

On country lanes, the Mokka Electric shows its limitations. It wasn't designed for enthusiastic driving and doesn't handle quick cornering with precision. Body lean in corners is more noticeable compared to the firmly sprung Kona Electric, and it feels less agile when navigating from one corner to the next. However, this shouldn't be a concern for those seeking a family-friendly electric SUV. If a spirited driving experience is what you're after, pricier options like the Ford Mustang Mach-E would be more suitable.

What’s it like inside the Mokka Electric?

What's it like inside the Mokka Electric? The Electric Car Scheme

The front seats in the Mokka Electric offer a lot of adjustment, ensuring comfort for drivers of various heights and sizes. The steering wheel is equally adaptable, accommodating long, short, tall, and wide drivers. Visibility is excellent, thanks to the large front and side windows. Storage solutions come as standard, featuring a pair of cup holders, a phone storage shelf, and a closable cubby in the centre console. The door bins are large and deep, but the glove box is too small to be of much practical use.

The rear seats are less accommodating. Taller passengers may find their heads brushing against the roof lining and their knees pressed against the front seatbacks. The centre rear seat is not ideal for adults, though three children can sit comfortably. However, the shallow rear side windows limit the view, especially for shorter passengers. The boot space is also limited. The Mokka Electric provides 310 litres behind the rear seats, which is 40 litres less than the petrol Mokka and significantly less than the Peugeot e-2008, which offers 405 litres. The Kia e-Niro is even more spacious, with 451 litres available.

Despite its smaller capacity, the Mokka Electric makes efficient use of its boot space. It features a wide and square boot opening and a height-adjustable boot floor (on the Ultimate trim) that minimizes the loading lip and provides a convenient place to store charging cables. The rear seats don't angle or slide, but they do fold down completely flat, making it easy to push heavy boxes to the back.

Infotainment and accessories

The Vauxhall Mokka Electric’s cabin boasts more design flair than the Kia e-Niro, though it doesn't quite match the funky layout of the Peugeot e-2008. However, the Vauxhall may be more practical, as the Peugeot's small diameter steering wheel can obscure the driver display.

A variety of trim finishes add a touch of colour to the interior, and the twin digital displays present a more cohesive design compared to the individual units found in most alternatives. The GS Line trims feature a leather-effect fabric, while the top Ultimate trim combines suede and Alcantara seat coverings.

A 10.0-inch colour touchscreen is positioned in the middle of the dashboard, slightly angled toward the driver. To its right is a 12.0-inch digital driver display, offering sharp graphics and extensive customisation options. The infotainment system includes Apple CarPlay and Android Auto connectivity, satellite navigation, Bluetooth, and DAB digital radio. There is a USB slot up front and two in the rear, and a six-speaker audio system comes standard. However, the system isn't the most intuitive to operate, with laggy responses and a frustrating menu layout. Fortunately, there are physical buttons below the screen for certain functions, which are easier to use on the move compared to touchscreen-only options in some alternatives. Additionally, you can opt to use your phone’s apps if you prefer them over Vauxhall’s setup.

Lease a Mokka-e from a green car scheme and see how much you can save!

If you choose to salary sacrifice a Mokka Electric through The Electric Car Scheme, you will save £296 in income tax and national insurance savings, but you will have to pay a small amount of benefit-in-kind tax (£45 in this case).

Benefit in kind, sometimes known as BiK, is a tax levied on the company benefits given to an employee over and above their salary. The amount is calculated based on three factors: the first is the level of CO2 emissions produced by a car (an EV will have none), and secondly, the P11D value of the car will be assessed. Thirdly, your tax bracket will be taken into account. You can learn more about BiK by reading our blog which covers everything you need to know about the topic!

Vauxhall Astra Electric

Lease the Vauxhall Astra Electric from a green car scheme and save thousands whilst saving the environment

This image was sourced from Vauxhall’s official website

The Astra was first sold by Vauxhall with a petrol engine in 1980 and is a compact family car - used perfectly as a daily run-around. Since then, it has also been offered as a hybrid model and in 2023, it hit UK roads as an all-electric model too!

The Vauxhall Astra Electric has an RRP range of between £37,795 to £43,260, which is high if you compare it to other small, electric counterparts like the MG4, Cupra Born and Volkswagen ID3 (which are all more affordable).

Trim levels available in the Astra

The Vauxhall Astra is offered in the same trim levels as other Vauxhall models. As you move up the trim levels, the monthly lease cost increases, ranging from £462 to £492 per month. While the powertrains and battery sizes remain largely consistent across trims, each higher trim level includes more advanced accessories and features.

Trim levelPowertrainBattery Size0-62mphRangeSalary sacrifice lease cost
Design115kW54kWh9.2 seconds260 miles£462 per month
GS115kW54kWh9.2 seconds259 miles£473 per month
Ultimate115kW54kWh9.2 seconds257 miles£494 per month

What’s the Astra like to drive?

As an electric vehicle, the Astra Electric excels in urban environments. The instant power from the electric motor ensures smooth acceleration from lights and junctions, eliminating the laggy gearbox issues of the standard Astra. The light steering simplifies turns and manoeuvres, with a 10.5-metre turning circle that is comparable to other models. Visibility is generally good, though the rear window is somewhat narrow.

The ride is comfortable over most urban bumps, though sharper potholes can unsettle the suspension. The 'B' brake regeneration setting increases energy recovery when you lift off the accelerator, enhancing efficiency even though it doesn't provide a one-pedal driving experience, meaning you still need to brake to come to a complete stop.

On the motorway, the Astra Electric, like many EVs, loses range more quickly due to less frequent opportunities for regenerative braking. It is noticeably less efficient at higher speeds than in town. Despite this, the Astra Electric accelerates briskly, reaching 0-60 mph in 9.2 seconds. Standard adaptive cruise control facilitates long-distance driving by maintaining a safe distance from the car ahead. However, you will notice significant wind noise and sound from the 18-inch alloy wheels.

On country lanes, the Astra Electric remains well balanced, though the weight of the batteries makes it less agile than the regular Astra. The electric motor provides ample power out of corners. Switching to 'Sport' mode increases throttle responsiveness, making the car feel more energetic when accelerating out of corners.

Space in the Vauxhall Astra

While the Astra Electric's cabin isn't particularly exciting, the front area is reasonably spacious with numerous pockets for storage. The door bins are adequately sized but lack felt lining, so items may rattle while driving. The split cover on the armrest is handy, though it doesn't provide much storage space underneath. Additionally, there are two covered cupholders, a spot for the key fob, and a pocket under the centre console for plugging in your smartphone. There are two USB-C ports for charging, and the top-end model includes a wireless charger.

Despite the good storage options, finding the right seating position can be challenging due to the combined horizontal and vertical seat adjustment, which moves diagonally. You might need to compromise on your seating position, but adjustments to the steering wheel can help improve comfort.

The back seats of the Astra Electric offer less space compared to other electric hatchbacks. Since it shares its platform with the petrol and hybrid versions, the Astra lacks a flat floor, limiting foot space. The batteries under the floor also mean less thigh support, resulting in higher leg positioning. The stylish roofline reduces headroom, and fitting three adults in the back is a tight squeeze. Models like the Volkswagen ID.3, Polestar 2, and MG4 provide more interior space. Storage nets on the back of the front seats and small door bins offer some storage options in the back.

The boot space is smaller due to the batteries under the floor and boot, providing 352 litres, which is less than the petrol version. While this isn't terrible, other EVs offer more practicality. For example, the Volkswagen ID.3 has 385 litres, the MG4 has 363 litres, the Renault Megane E-Tech has 440 litres, and the Polestar 2 offers 405 litres. Most of these alternatives also provide underfloor storage for cables, which the Astra lacks. When the rear seats are folded down, you get a flat load floor, making it easy to slide larger items to the front. There's minimal load lip, making it easier to lift items in and out. The 1,268-liter space is comparable in size to other models.

Infotainment and accessories

The design of Astra’s cabin is generally nice, though the black plastic throughout the cabin is prone to scratches and smudges. The air conditioning controls are conveniently physical buttons, making adjustments easy while driving. However, most other settings and the main system are navigable only via the touchscreen, with configurable tiles on the main menu for quick access to frequently used features.

Inside the Vauxhall Astra there are two 10-inch displays - The Electric Car Scheme

This image has been sourced from Vauxhall’s official website.

The Astra features two 10.0-inch displays: an infotainment touchscreen and a driver’s display. Both are clear, but the software can be a bit laggy when navigating menus or changing the driver’s display view. The touchscreen system can be somewhat tricky to use, and the main controls for the 10.0-inch driver’s display are located on the ends of the indicator and windscreen wiper stalks, which isn't very user-friendly. However, once you set up the screens to your liking, the system operates smoothly enough.

You can also use Apple CarPlay and Android Auto wirelessly, allowing you to access most of your smartphone apps via the touchscreen. Customisation options for the cabin are limited. The only significant choice is whether or not to have a black roof.

How much could you save leasing a Vauxhall Astra through car salary sacrifice?

At The Electric Car Scheme, we aim to simplify the electric car experience by making it easy to add everything you need into one bundle. You can get full tax savings on maintenance, breakdown cover, comprehensive car insurance and a home charge point - keeping your net zero journey hassle-free.

How much could you save leasing a Vauxhall Astra with electric car salary sacrifice?

You can lease a Vauxhall Astra from £725 without a green car scheme. However, with electric car salary sacrifice, you will only need to pay £462 per month. If you are a 40% tax payer, with a 3 year lease, 10,000 miles per annum allowance and paying on a flay payment plan, you will save £290 on income tax savings and £15 on national insurance savings. This takes your savings to just over £300 on a monthly basis!

Vauxhall Vivaro Life Electric

The Vauxhall Vivaro-e Life is designed as a practical family car capable of seating up to nine occupants. There are two versions to choose from: one powered by a 134 bhp electric motor paired with a 50kWh battery pack, and another with a 75kWh battery pack. Both models offer a range of 175 to 199 miles on a single charge. While this range isn't particularly extensive, charging to 80% takes about 45 minutes, so your wait at charging stations won't be too long.

Folding down all the rear seats in the medium-length version of the Vivaro-e Life provides 3,900 litres of storage space, which expands to 4,500 litres in the long wheelbase version. Even with the seats in place, you still have 1,384 litres of space if you pack up to the roofline.

Trim levels available in the Vauxhall Vivaro

There are three trim levels available in the Vauxhall Vivaro, these include the Combi, Design and the Ultimate. Let’s have a look at the differences between the three:

Combi

The Combi fits 9 people and comes with a lot of comfort and safety features to make it the perfect vehicle to transport your family around! Some of the interesting standard features include:

  • Multimedia pro (including a 10-inch HD touchscreen),

  • 16-inch steel wheels,

  • High beam assist,

  • Lane-keeping assist,

  • Driver attention alert,

  • Rear parking distance sensors.

  • Dual-zone electronic climate control with rear air conditioning,

  • Rear seats back tables,

  • Keyless entry and starting,

  • Front & rear park assist (visiopark 180, blind spot detection).

Overall, the Vivaro Electric is an ideal car if you have a big family and need the additional space you don’t get with a conventional five-seater!

Electric car scheme UK: Vivaro Life Electric savings

At The Electric Car Scheme, another perk is that we protect our employees using the scheme and employers offering the scheme a protection package called Complete Risk Protection. This was designed to provide reassurance that the employer is protected from day one. In our latest market review, our Complete Risk Protection package emerged as the top choice, providing the most comprehensive protection for businesses when implementing a salary sacrifice scheme.

Lease a Vauxhall Vivaro-e through The Electric Car Scheme and save 30-60%

Without an electric car salary sacrifice, you could be paying £918 per month for a Vauxhall Vivaro-e. However, with The Electric Car Scheme, you would only need to pay £575 per month. This saves you £367 in income tax and £18 in national insurance. You will also need to pay a small benefit-in-kind tax of £42 per month. Ultimately, salary sacrifice is a no-brainer, allowing you to save hundreds each month.


How does salary sacrifice work?

As we have mentioned several times in this blog, EV salary sacrifice is a great way of saving money on the lease cost of an electric car by sacrificing a portion of your pre-tax salary. It needs to be set up by your company as an employee benefit for you to take advantage of the tax benefits and then you’re able to choose the car you want, add extras and you could drive away saving thousands.

How does it work for employees?

Three steps explain how salary sacrifice works for employees:

  1. Your employer leases an electric car from a salary sacrifice provider (like The Electric Car Scheme),

  2. Employees get the car (as a benefit) in exchange for your salary,

  3. Your sacrificed salary is not taxable, saving you thousands of pounds.

How does EV salary sacrifice work for employers

As you can imagine, the process for employers is slightly different:

  1. Talk with one of our product specialists to understand how electric car salary sacrifice will work in your business,

  2. Sign up to The Electric Car Scheme (or salary sacrifice provider of your choice). We will handle the scheme setup and launch to make the process as hassle-free as possible for you!

  3. Launch the scheme with the help of one of our Customer Success Managers. This includes an employee webinar, demo days, promotions and more to ensure the scheme launch is successful.

  4. Once your scheme is launched, our EV Specialist and Customer Success teams will regularly be in touch.
