About The Electric Car Scheme
Written by the company
The Electric Car Scheme helps people switch to electric cars. We set up salary sacrifice schemes for UK businesses. They can then offer their employees access electric cars in the cheapest way possible. Employees can save 20-50% on any electric car through salary sacrifice. The employer provides the car, and the employee sacrifices their salary in return. This enables employees to pay out of their salary before tax.
The UK government is supporting the switch to electric by providing these tax incentives. The Electric Car Scheme makes it hassle-free, risk-free, and cost-free for businesses to pass on these savings to their employees.
In short, we do for electric cars what the ‘Cycle to Work Scheme’ did for bicycles.
We believe that every person wants to make a significant impact to lower carbon emissions. Switching to an electric car is the biggest step you can take as an individual to reduce your carbon footprint.

Salary sacrifice for electric cars
Written by the company
- Save 20-50% on any electric car through salary sacrifice
- Salary sacrifice saves 20-50% on the cost of any electric car by paying from salary before tax. The Electric Car Scheme makes it a no-brainer for employers with first-rate risk protection, best prices available, and will manage the scheme at no cost. Join our 5 star salary sacrifice scheme to help your team on their journey to Net Zero.
- Driving down CO2 Emissions
- At The Electric Car Scheme, we understand that every person can make a significant impact to lower carbon emissions. Switching to an electric car is the biggest step you can take as an individual to reduce your carbon footprint.
- Unlocking government tax savings
- The government's tax incentives for electric cars promote sustainable choices. But they are complex and difficult to access. At The Electric Car Scheme, we make it simple to access the government tax incentives for our Net Zero transition.
- The obvious choice
- We believe sustainable choices should be obvious and affordable. That means no trade-offs. When the choice is better for your wallet and better for the environment – it’s a no brainer. We enable everyone to make the choice to accelerate the transition to net zero.

Brilliant
Brilliant. There was alot of back and forth with my order, availability, affordability, delivery etc. but the people I spoke to to (Sam, ash, and I believe Marcus?) genuinely seemed like they wanted to get the best outcome for me, and now I have a car I'm really happy with. Understanding and great service throughout, including several follow up calls to make sure I'm happy with everything absolutely 10/10

Responsive, Professional and Knowledgeable.
Right from the beginning the team was very impressive and created a very positive experience through the process. As a busy executive, my initial conversation with Sarah Giles made it clear that this was the company we wanted to go with. Subsequently, Alex Antoni and Marios Christophi were amazing to keep me informed and proactive around next steps and also on hand to help with any questions.

I had a very excellent experience. The staff at TECS were very helpful, patient and friendly. Chris was my first contact and he made my experience in searching for the perfect car for my needs very enjoyable. He was always ready to help and available to answer any burning questions. After purchase he remains my go to person when unsure what to do.
