🚨PHEV Tax Changes Are Already Influencing Fleet Decisions

With a significant tax hike on plug-in hybrids approaching, many organisations aren’t waiting around — they’re already adjusting lease lengths and replacement cycles to avoid getting caught by a costly cliff edge.

But is flexing lease cycles a smart long-term move… or just buying time?

🚗Thinking About Your Next Electric Vehicles? Kia Just Got Grant Approval

Kia’s EV4 and PV5 are now eligible for the UK electric car grant — which could make a real difference when weighing up costs, budgets and replacement plans.

Fleet News looks at what’s changed — and what you should be factoring into your planning before making the call.
