No, as the monthly payment for the car is actually based on 6k pa, so if you were doing 12k pa the monthly payments for only the car would be higher also.

Oh yes, you are right. So add £25 per month for excess mileage charge and you get to approx £197.

Excess mileage is charged at 8p per mile. So an extra 6k per year would be £480!

But realistically the difference (if agreed upfront) would be a lot less. it would be around £13 a month more!

Mr Face how much are these now for a 6000 mile a year deal ?

Car hasn't changed, 6000 mile battery hire is £50pm now.

How much are each of the levels now? (Renault website doesn't appear to have been updated)

[Tophatron]

Also, are there any PCP figures for the "battery included" car yet?

Thanks!

Can I get one through the biz at similar financials ?

Yes and no, there isn't any supported PCP schemes as yet so you can have one, but go give you an idea I just quoted someone at £370 with no deposit. Still waiting on updated RV's for the 'I' models.

You can have 0% HP though which will be more attractive to people wanting to 'own' the battery and car. PCP is still going to work best with hiring the battery, especially with the deposit contributions you get!

I'll update tomorrow.

Just quoted on a 3 year PCP with nil deposit for £167 inc battery hire and metallic paint.

I don't do much business, it depends on if you'd want lease purchase/contract hire?

[HTP99]

Always thought that it was mad of Renault only offering the lease option on the battery, lease is great on a PCP and the best way to go, however with the died in the wool, older generation who are generally cash rich and just won't do finance; unless it's 0%, they just won't touch a battery lease and I can totally understand why.

This is a good move by Renault and should push sales up, if only they had done it from launch.

Said every Renault dealer about every launch ever

Alex, can you look at battery figures on RCI direct? Mines quoting £50 for every mileage!

So it does and yes so true about every Renault launch!!

What's the mileage limit? Do you think these deals will still be running next year? I've enquired on a decent Leaf Tekna PCP but they can't come close to the present Zoe ones. Think I need to sort a test drive out.

6k per year. No way to know what the deals will be. There's a massive push for registrations at the moment hence the cracking deals!!

[tony wright]

This is the deal at my local Renault dealer http://www.drivebenfield.com/new-vehicles/renault-... although I think it's only 3k a year battery rent.

Tempted by one of these or the Leaf on an equally cheap deal for the missus.

She does 15 miles each way - on the motorway at rush hour.

So prob needs about 8k a year max?

We don't have a garage at home, but do have off road parking - and we've had a flyer through the door offering a free charger installation?

Suitable for her?

How much roughly would we be looking at? Would prefer a two year deal I think rather than committing for 4.

Cheers

look at a low mileage deal and calculate the extra ppm for going over - may work out cheaper

It won't, you have to pay a penalty for the car AND the battery. Works out very expensive!

I thought that I saw that the battery was about 30p per mile on top of the car excess...

IIRC (I haven't done one in a bit) it's 4.5p per mile + 8p on the car so 12.5p per mile.

5000miles (per year) in excess mileage is £1875 over a 36m agreement.

The difference on the PCP is £7(ish) and the battery lease is £27(ish) so a total of £1224. Saving you £600+.

I'm wondering if I'll benefit from the price drop. Technically, I think I ordered the car when it was £70 a month, but I don't think I've signed the battery rental agreement yet so may benefit from the price drop. Will have to see when my salesman updates me on the status of the car.
