Salary sacrifice supplier The Electric Car Scheme has seen 500% growth in its customer base so far this year.

The organisation has also attracted £2.5 million in growth investment from top VC funds, including Triple Point Ventures, Adjuvo, Portfolio Ventures, Ascension and the VOYAGERS Climate-Tech Fund.

It has also parterned with car subscription service Onto to provide salary sacrifice administration for subscription electric cars. Traditionally, salary sacrifice has been limited to long-term leases.

Thom Groot, Electric Car Scheme CEO and co-founder, said: “Subscriptions have been a great way for people to try driving and owning an electric car.  Now The Electric Car Scheme can help more people try electric car subscriptions and make this step as affordable as possible.”

Rob Jolly, Onto CEO and co-founder, added: “This partnership is an exciting proposition for employers and employees alike.

“As the shift to electric cars continues, we want to continue making electric cars accessible to all and provide customers with a cost-effective, hassle-free, flexible product that also makes them feel good about their impact on the planet.”
