We’re committed to making our cities healthier, greener places to live. That means adding more electric vehicles to our fleet and offering drivers more ways they can benefit from driving them.
Together let’s push towards a more sustainable future. Read on to see how we can help you make the switch and save big when you do.
Enjoy £200 cashback from Otto Car and up to £2,000 from us when you buy an electric car on finance.
Get £2,380 off the purchase price of a brand new TX Vista Comfort Plus! Marshall’s is an authorized dealer of LEVC in Nottingham but can serve all areas of the UK.
All FREENOW drivers with an electric vehicle are eligible for a £2,000-per-year subsidy payment from FREENOW, subject to terms and conditions.
If you have an electric vehicle, you’ll also receive offers when passengers specifically request an electric vehicle, as well as receiving standard passenger requests. On average, electric car drivers earn almost £500 per month from trips where a passenger specifically requests an electric vehicle.
Plus, FREENOW’s electric car drivers get over 40% more tips than petrol, diesel, and hybrid vehicle drivers on average.
Finally, electric vehicles are exempt from both the congestion charge and ULEZ. This could save you up to £2,500 per year in congestion charge fees.
This means that you can earn more with an electric taxi or black cab, thanks to the FREENOW subsidy, more trip offers, extra tips and fewer fees for the congestion charge and ULEZ.
It can cost as little as 6p per mile to charge your electric car thanks to our partners. That’s loads less than spending 20p per mile on fuel for a petrol or diesel car.
With a rapid charging station, it can take just 35 minutes to charge a Kia e-Niro to 80%. To charge to 100% at a home charging station takes approximately 6 hours.

39 kWh | 180 miles | 6hrs 30mins (7.2kW, 0-100%) | 43mins (50kW, 10-80%) |
64kWh | 282 miles | 10hrs 30mins (7.2kW, 0-100%) | 44mins (77kW, 10-80%) |
FREENOW drivers have access to an exclusive electric vehicle rent-to-buy scheme through Otto Cars and WeFlex that means they can receive a £200 cashback. Plus, there’s the £2,000 FREENOW subsidy, subject to terms and conditions.
