Lease a place in the electric revolution

The AA is giving all its EV Smart Lease customers £50 off an EO home charging installation covering both the EO Mini Pro 2 and the EO Mini.

Thanks to the Office for Zero Emission Vehicles (OZEV) grant, customers pay £545 for the EO Mini Pro 2 installed and £745 for the EO Mini installed.

AA Smart Lease is available to all drivers and, with more than half the cars available either electric or hybrid, provides a useful gateway for motorists to try an EV before they buy one.

EO Charging is one of the UK’s leading providers of electric vehicle chargers. Since launching in 2014, EO has sold over 50,000 chargers to customers around the world.

Unlike most other lease products on the market, a car on AA Smart Lease can be returned without penalty in certain situations if the customer’s financial circumstances change, such as redundancy, divorce or other critical life events. If the car is driven more, or fewer, miles than planned during the course of the lease, the mileage plan can also be changed at any time during the contract period, with no admin fees.

James Fairclough, CEO of AA Smart Lease, said: “We want to ensure there are as few barriers as possible for drivers who want to make the switch to an electric vehicle.

“Partnering with EO to bring our leasing customers this deal is just one of the ways the AA is helping drive forward the electric revolution.

“We currently have well over 100 electric vehicles to choose from and some of our most popular models, such as the Vauxhall e-Corsa and Hyundai Kona electric hatchback, are in stock and ready for delivery.

“Added to that, AA Smart Lease gives drivers real flexibility, so there’s never been a better time to make the switch and start 2022 by saying goodbye to the pumps.”

AA Smart Lease works like a long-term rental, with a monthly fee to drive a brand new car for two to four years. The product’s inclusive monthly cost covers servicing and maintenance, vehicle tax and VAT, on either a 24month, 36-month or 48month contract.

AA Smart Lease monthly fee also covers breakdown and tyre replacement.

The AA will deliver your new car at the start of your contract and collect it at the end.
