Introduction
Renault solves the problem of price and depreciation of an electric car by selling the car minus the battery at around the same price as a diesel car (after the government £5,000 subsidy). Then leasing the battery at £70 per month which, with the cost of electricity, works out about the same as running a diesel car.
But, of course, the Fluence is VED free and will probably also be London Congestion tax free.
Prices have been announced and the Fluence ZE costs £17,850 on-the-road after the £5,000 government subsidy has been deducted. There is of course, the battery leasing fee and charging costs, too.
Even so, the on-the-road price means it will be the cheapest full-size electric car when it goes on sale in 2012.
