Vauxhall has entered the EV price war with a bold new offer across its entire electric car range – £1,500 off, 0% finance, and a generous package of charging incentives.
Combined with up to £1,500 in deposit contributions and the Electric All In package offering £500 towards charging and 10,000 miles of free electricity, this makes Vauxhall’s electric cars some of the most attainable on the market. It joins the growing list of discounted EVs currently vying for buyers’ attenton.
The deals cover the Corsa Electric, Mokka Electric, Astra Electric (hatch and estate), and the new Frontera Electric. All are available with four-year PCPs at 0% APR – provided you have a 20% deposit. Highlights include the Frontera Electric from just £177 per month and the Mokka Electric Ultimate at £361.
Vauxhall’s Managing Director Steve Catlin said: ‘These new offers bring clarity now to customers who were waiting to see which vehicles were set to be eligible for the new Electric Car Grant. Now there’s never been a better time to switch.’
Across the range, buyers benefit from meaningful savings. As an example, the £35,105 Mokka Electric GS now costs £33,605 after the £1,500 grant. Add a further £1,500 deposit contribution, and monthly payments drop to £334. All retail orders made between now and 31 August are eligible. Meanwhile, the larger Grandland Electric comes with a £2,500 deposit contribution, and undercuts the equivalent hybrid on monthly payments.
What this means for you
These new offers are about much more than just headline figures, as they tackle three of the biggest concerns people have about going electric: purchase price, monthly cost, and charging. With interest-free finance and money off the list price, it makes Vauxhall’s electric range far more accessible to everyday buyers.
For those concerned about running costs, the Electric All In package goes a step further. It gives £500 towards a home wallbox or public charging, and even offers 10,000 miles of free charging – a significant saving over petrol or diesel.
Crucially, none of the Vauxhall electric cars are affected by the £40,000 Expensive Car Supplement, meaning you’ll pay standard VED rates. With fuel and tax savings added together, the maths for going electric just got more tempting. Finally it begs the question – where the hell is Ford in all of this?
Editor’s view: this is the big one – aiming at total ownership costs
I’ve been waiting for this. Vauxhall has fired the first proper broadside in the post-grant EV price war – and crucially, it’s targeted at people who actually need help affording their next car, not just early adopters or the badge conscious.
A Corsa Electric from £300 a month, with zero interest and £1,500 off? That’s a decent PCP deal you could confidently recommend to someone trading out of a petrol supermini. And the Frontera Electric at £177 a month? That’s firmly in Dacia Sandero territory – and a bit of a gamechanger for budget-conscious families.
I still love a Chevette or Cavalier Mk1, but credit where it’s due: this new crop of electric Vauxhalls are more than competent, smartly priced, and this offer finally puts them on the radar for a lot of people who previously dismissed EVs. Let’s hope other manufacturers follow suit.
