2016 Winner Premium Supermini - MINI
“The Mini may have performed well as a company car in three-door form but the arrival of
the five-door model has opened it up to a much greater audience who either have to have
five doors or need extra space - all without diluting the appeal of the model's uniquely retro
styling and fun-to-drive nature.
With a range of efficient turbocharged petrol and diesel motors, and strong residual values,
it almost doesn't matter which model of Mini users opt for, as low whole-life costs are prac-
tically guaranteed”

The BMW i3 was voted as the Green
Vehicle of the Year at 2016’s ACFO Awards
BMW i3 with Range Extender
DETAILED SPECIFICATION
Power 204 HP
0 - 62 MPH 7.9 secs
Range up to 206 miles
CO2 Emissions 12 G/KM
Benefit in Kind 20% £42 (per month)
Benefit in Kind 40% £84 (per month)
With sustainability at the core of everything
that BMW i represents, the BMW i3 is de­
signed purely around electric power. Every
element of the car has been carefully consid­
ered. The aluminium chassis and carbon fibre
reinforced plastic bodyshell not only make the
BMW i3 incredibly light, but also allow it to go
further on just one charge. The BMW i3 94Ah
with Range Extender provides up to 206 miles
on one charge in COMFORT mode. As you
would expect from a BMW, the BMW i3 also
provides excellent handling and driving expe­
rience, achieving 0-62mph in an impressive
8.1 seconds.
The UK motoring tax system is designed to favour the take-up of electric
vehicles (EVs) with Government grants furthering the incentives for corporate cus-
tomers.
Additional funding is available to help with the purchase of vehicles and installation
of recharging points, meaning there is a solid business case for introducing such
cars and vans to fleet operations.
The London Congestion Charge and the Low Emission Zone ringing the capital also
favour the cleanest vehicles, while many local authorities offer free parking for plug-
in cars and vans – with more initiatives set to follow.
Add fuel costs into the financial equation, where along with company car benefit-in-
kind (BIK) tax the biggest savings are achievable, and switching to EVs starts to
make real sense.
The Government has confirmed, following a review that company car benefit-in-kind
(BIK) tax will continue to be based on vehicle CO2 emissions from 2020/21.
BIK tax rates are known until the end of 2019/20 – which enables businesses to
plan their vehicle choice lists and calculate the financial cost to themselves and
employees.
But prior to announcing rates for future years, the Government is to consult on re-
form of the bands for EVs (below 75g/km) to refocus fleet demand on the cleanest
cars. That suggests that rather than a single rate of tax for cars with emissions of 0-
50g/km and for those with emissions of 51-75g/km there could be a series of more
graduated thresholds.
Like BIK tax, employers’ Class 1A national insurance contributions (NIC), charged at
the rate of 13.8%, are linked to a car’s P11D value and CO2 emission figure. There-
fore, the lower a car’s CO2 emissions the lower the NIC charge.
LIVE ELECTRIC
Over the four-years to 2019/20, company car drivers will pay
a total of £2,981 less in BIK tax on the BMW i3 if a lower
rate taxpayer and £5,963 if a higher rate taxpayer against an
equivalent priced diesel car.
Employers over the four-year period businesses will save
themselves a total of more than £2,000 in Class 1A NIC per
vehicle by choosing the BMW i3.
