Used electric cars are hot, leasing deals are not
Are leasing companies overcharging customers on EV deals?
Leasing companies claim to be leading the transition to electrification but the data tells a different story. None of the top ten leasing companies will disclose their current uptake of battery electric vehicles (BEV), nor will they set an ambitious BEV target. T&E analysis of used car prices suggests that leasing companies are actually slowing down the shift to electromobility due to their conservative pricing that overcharge drivers that want to lease an electric car.
