Grosvenor Leasing is returning to GBFE

The award-winning business – one of the UK’s largest privately-owned contract hire and fleet management specialists – will take a prominent role to empower fleets with compelling solutions.

Centre stage at the show – which takes place on 17 April at Milton Keynes – will be the Kettering-based firm’s salary sacrifice offering.

This enables employees to drive an electric car for up to 40% less than on a personal lease, while the scheme removes risk for employee and employer, with built-in protection should circumstances change, such as free returns if employees leave. Grosvenor even provides salary sacrifice for home chargers to reduce costs further and make the switch to electric even easier for drivers.

Alongside this, Grosvenor will also reveal its new and innovative funding solution that’s revolutionising the switch to EVs for business communities.

Developed in close consultation with company owners and operators throughout the country, the EValuate electric vehicle service provides an entry point to decarbonisation for fleets.

This comprehensive funding product offers used electric vehicles over flexible lease periods – delivering all the benefits and support of leasing, with an emphasis on electric cars and vans that are two to three years old.

It’s offered with flexible hire terms, from one month to three years, enabling companies to either ‘put a toe in the water’ to assess EVs, or make longer-term commitments. Clients can opt for a short-term hire, then return the vehicle early without penalty if they feel it doesn’t meet their requirements. Should a vehicle suit their needs, they can extend their contract to become a standard lease at any point.

Vehicles can even be supplied through Grosvenor’s salary sacrifice scheme, with the option of including a home charger, to maximise the cost effectiveness of the solution further.

EValuate also provides a valuable zero-emission vehicle replacement service for electric car drivers whose vehicles are off the road or unavailable. This avoids them being switched into a petrol or diesel alternative and risking an increase in Benefit-in-Kind tax charges.

As with all Grosvenor services, EValuate supports businesses and drivers in a fast-evolving industry sector by providing fresh thinking and a new approach to vehicle solutions.

More details of all Grosvenor’s solutions are available here – but fleets attending the upcoming Great British Fleet Event will be able to find everything they need to know first-hand from its expert team.

That’s not all either – GBFE will also deliver a huge number of other highlights that include fleet vehicle and solution debuts from an array of businesses, extensive networking opportunities and the evening’s black-tie gala dinner to reveal the winners of the Great British Fleet Awards. Your free ticket to attend awaits you here.
