Have you considered getting GAP insurance for your next lease car?

carwow has partnered with MotorEasy to provide GAP insurance. GAP insurance covers the difference between the amount you owe on your car if you have a leasing agreement, and the amount an insurance company would give you if your car is declared a total loss or write-off. This can protect you financially from a shortfall of potentially thousands of pounds. MotorEasy is offering a 15% discount to all carwow customers who take out GAP insurance with them.

Why lease an electric car

Electric cars (EVs) are gaining popularity for their eco-friendliness and advanced technology, making them an appealing choice for many drivers. Leasing an EV provides access to a wide range of models, from compact city cars to premium options, ensuring there’s something to fit your lifestyle and needs.

The key benefits of electric cars include lower running costs, reduced emissions, and the convenience of home charging. They offer a smooth, quiet driving experience and are ideal for those looking to make a positive environmental impact.

However, the upfront cost of purchasing an electric car can be higher than a traditional petrol or diesel vehicle. Leasing makes it more affordable by spreading the costs into manageable monthly payments. It also allows you to easily compare options and stay up-to-date with the latest EV technology, ensuring you get the best value without the long-term commitment of ownership.
