Salary packaged EV Subscriptions explained

Australian tax regulations have made salary packaging a cost effective way to get behind the wheel of an EV. Find out what this means and the steps you'll need to take to drive an EV with this arrangement.

What is a salary packaged EV Subscription?

What is it?

A salary packaged EV Subscription is an agreement between you, your employer and AGL that enables you to subscribe to an electric vehicle and pay for it with pre-tax income.

How does it work?

This is done by transferring the obligation for payment of the monthly subscription costs from you to your employer through a novation agreement. AGL will invoice your employer, who will pay us directly and then make deductions from your pre-tax salary via payroll. This is why this is called salary packaging.

Who's responsible?

While the obligation to arrange payments is with your employer, all other responsibilities under the subscription agreement remains with you. If you leave your employer during your subscription period, you will need to either transfer to your new employer (subject to their agreement), pay with post-tax income or hand the car back.

What's included in your EV Subscription

Ready to drive

A late model electric car with low mileage or a new car.

Standard Maintenance

Car insurance

Comprehensive car insurance with excess starting from $2000.

Round the clock support

Registration

Registration is included in the weekly cost, meaning no bill shock at renewal time.

Swap your EV every 6 months

With a 6 month plan you can change your electric vehicle twice a year, subject to product availability.
