Motability have updated their new car and Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle (WAV) Advance Payment prices for April, May And June 2024. Here we look at some of the highlights and the key changes for the second quarter of the year and pick out all the best new Motability car deals. The Motability Scheme helps people with a disability and carers in the UK to lease a brand new and affordable vehicle, with a great selection of around 1000 different cars, SUVs, MPVs and Wheelchair Accessible Vehicles (WAVs) to choose from.
The UK's Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) mandate stipulates that, in 2024, 22% of each car manufacturer's new vehicle sales must be zero-emission models.
This percentage, set by the mandate, is scheduled to increase annually, reaching 80% by 2030. According to the Department for Transport (DfT), manufacturers will face a fine of £15,000 for each vehicle sold that exceeds their non-zero-emission allowance.
As a result, automakers are intensifying their efforts to increase the registration of electric vehicles (EVs), viewing the Motability Scheme as a crucial channel for meeting these stringent new requirements.
This focus on EVs is likely the reason why, this quarter, the Advance Payment prices for electric vehicles on the Motability Scheme have tended to either stabilise or decrease, whereas the prices for petrol and diesel vehicles (also known as internal combustion engine vehicles, or ICEs) have generally remained stable or increased.
Vehicles that are back on or new to the Motability Scheme at the start of this quarter include the following models:
Cars no longer available to order include the BMW i4, Ford Fiesta, Ford Tourneo Custom, Honda e, Honda Jazz, Kia Soul EV, 3 and 5-door Mini hatch, Nissan Juke, Peugeot 5008, Renault Zoe, SEAT Leon and petrol versions of the Volvo XC40.
We put this guide together at the start of April 2024. Remember vehicles can be added and removed by car manufacturers at any point during the quarter.
