Electric car leasing: your path to the future.
Electric car leasing makes it easier for you to switch from an internal combustion engine to an e-car. It is therefore suitable for people who want to drive at regular intervals at a calculable cost and be financially secure at the same time. Electric car leasing allows you to experience new developments in the automotive industry at first hand. With a monthly installment payment, you will receive a used or new car with innovative technology. This allows you to experience driving an electric vehicle without committing to a long-term purchase. Thanks to individual installments and a short contract commitment, you remain flexible. Enjoy driving pleasure while protecting the environment at the same time.
Leasing electric cars - advantages.
# Sustainability
By leasing an e-car, you can make a contribution to reducing CO2 emissions. Help shape the future and experience a new, dynamic driving experience with an electric vehicle of your choice.
# Transparency
With us, vehicle leasing is transparent at all times. When you return your vehicle, we offer you to have your vehicle inspected by an independent appraiser*. If necessary, you can use our online claims catalogue to find out easily about the consequences of any damage.
# A constant rent over time
You pay a rent each month that reflects the actual use of your vehicle and is significantly lower than the amount of conventional financing over the same period. In fact, you are not financing the entire vehicle. This makes it easier for you to afford a higher quality vehicle. And another advantage: It is not absolutely necessary to make a personal contribution.
# Financial security and administrative peace of mind
Our monthly installments give you planning security during electric car leasing. Depending on the e-car, you can also benefit from subsidies such as the e-subsidy for electric cars. More info about the current and valid e-subsidies.

Recharging an electric vehicle

Comparison of the engine types
Depending on your needs and your driving pattern, there are different types of mobility. What is your style?
Diesel
Diesel vehicles are ideal for long distances, especially on motorways, where they can really maximise engine efficiency. Diesel engines must be warmed up regularly and for a long period of time. This means that if a diesel car is used for short journeys in urban traffic, chances are you will not get the fuel economy you expect.
Diesel engines have to reach the right temperature to be really efficient, but once they do, they can be very efficient. In fact, when a diesel engine is used properly, it can use 30% less fuel than a petrol-powered car. Maybe you pay a little more at the time of purchase, but it will pay off (and more) over the long haul.
Modern diesel cars also come equipped with special diesel engine filters (DPFs), filter systems that absorb the particulate matter accumulating in the engine and thus help to reduce CO2 emissions. These filters will regenerate on long journeys, but on shorter journeys particulate matter can build up and eventually lead to problems. Having them cleaned or replaced regularly can be an extra expense, if you do not drive long distances often enough.
Petrol
The petrol vehicle is at present more economical to buy. It still has many enthusiasts given the driving comfort.
It also requires minimum maintenance.
Currently, fuel prices are still high but the gap to diesel is decreasing.
Hybrid plug-in
Plug-in hybrid vehicles offer a short range in 100% electric mode. When travelling long distances, there is a tendency to use the internal combustion engine. Plug-in hybrids have both an electric motor and a combustion engine. This means that you benefit from the efficiency of electric power for shorter journeys, whilst also being able to use standard fuel for the occasional longer journey.
When used properly, a plug-in hybrid is very useful. With the efficiency and zero emissions of an electric vehicle, it provides the comfort of a petrol or diesel engine.
Electricity
Electric vehicles are the perfect choice for short trips, with relatively low total mileage and with stops where the car can potentially be recharged.
Economics
Any subsidies or tax benefits being proposed should also be taken into account, in addition to the fuel savings that will obviously be achieved. Electric vehicles have an electric motor, which also means fewer parts, no oil replacement and generally fewer technical problems. That means that you are likely to have less downtime for technical or mechanical reasons and lower maintenance costs.
Recharging
There are a lot more recharging facilities available out there than might be imaginable. You can also have a terminal installed at home and add it to your lease contract.
Selection
Ultimately, the range of electric vehicles is evolving and expanding across different vehicle ranges and budgets.
