Q: How does leasing a car work?

Electric car leasing is a little like renting. It allows you the flexibility of enjoying a new car and spreading the rental cost of a vehicle over time. You choose: - The car that you like, - Length of lease - typically 3-5 years, - Set number of miles to suit your need, - The amount of your initial deposit. At the end of your leasing period, you simply hand the car back to the leasing company.

Notes

A Pod charger is not required to be eligible for the EDF £130 account credit offer.
To get up to the £589 saving, GoElectric's £300 saving is combined with the £289 Smart Charging bolt-on saving.
GoElectric £300 saving: compares EDF’s GoElectric Apr27 tariff cost at £1,938 a year based on a dual fuel customer using total electricity consumption of 4,650 kWh (2,700kWh peak rates and 1,950 kWh off-peak rates) and Ofgem typical gas consumption of 11,500 kWh. This is compared to a dual fuel Standard Variable customer (Electricity Economy 7 meter adjusted for equivalent electricity use) which will cost £2,238 a year based on January 2026 energy price cap rates. This assumes your car is charged during off-peak hours at the GoElectric off-peak rate. We use a national average of Direct Debit regional prices and actual savings may apply depending on usage and charging patterns.
£289 Smart Charging bolt-on saving: annual savings assume 3,150kWh charging off-peak and a £5/month credit. Smart Charging offers an extra 1,200 kWh of off-peak charging. The total off-peak charging is 3,150 kWh with EDF's GoElectric tariff (GoElectric's off-peak rates at 1,950 kWh). Prices correct as of 28 January 2026.
