Company car and salary sacrifice drivers can now benefit from an EV charging partnership between Volkswagen Group UK and OVO.

The agreement, previously available to retail customers, gives drivers access to OVO’s Charge Anytime add-on, allowing home charging from 7p/kWh 24 hours a day, as well as 2,000 free miles on sign-up and anniversary bonuses of 1,000 free miles per year for the next three years.

The offer applies to fleet drivers with vehicles purchased from 1 January this year, from brands including Volkswagen, Audi, Cupra, and Skoda. 

In addition, petrol and diesel car drivers can ‘bank’ future EV miles to use should then then switch to a Volkswagen Group EV.

Volkswagen Group UK head of group fleet and insight operations Iker Lazzari said: “I’m really pleased we’re now able to offer fleet drivers the same convenient ‘EV package’ as retail buyers by extending the OVO energy partnership agreement to cover company car and salary sacrifice customers. 

“Free miles, anniversary bonuses and access to one single energy cost are new and simple ways in which we can show our commitment to electrification and, importantly, to making the switch to EV both easy and enjoyable.”

OVO director of EVs Alex Thwaites said: “Together with Volkswagen Group we are rewarding customers for making the switch to an EV. 

“We look forward to extending our market-leading Charge Anytime to fleet drivers and helping more people on their decarbonisation journey, all while cutting costs.”
