[DEALERSHIP NAME]in [TOWN NAME] is delighted to announce a range of competitive finance offers for the first 4x4 SUV plug-in hybrid into the UK market. The Outlander PHEV, which benefits from £0 VED, meaning you don’t pay any road tax, is Congestion Charge free, also qualifies for the UK government’s £5,000 Plug-In Car Grant (P-ICG).

Since its launch in April this year, [DEALERSHIP NAME] has taken orders and deposits from customers who eagerly anticipate the vehicles arrival later this month. The Outlander PHEV is also the only plug-in hybrid to be launched at the same price as its diesel equivalent.

6.9% APR Finance Option

In addition to the new contract hire and leasing rentals, both retail and business user customers can benefit from a 6.9% APR Finance option. This offer is available on both regulated and non-regulated finance plans.

A minimum deposit of 10% post grant is required. For retail customers, this type of proposition means that ownership passes upon signing the agreement and for business users, the vehicle is an asset on the balance sheet and lower monthly payments aid cash flow. For example;

Benefit in Kind
What’s more company car drivers will further benefit - if a customer is a 40% tax payer, the company car tax on Outlander PHEV is £665 in the first year and in tax years 2015/2016, company car tax increases will make the Outlander PHEV tax savings even bigger.

To give an example, a 40% tax payer keeping their company Outlander PHEV GX3h for three years will save the following in tax versus a similar vehicle, like below:

  • Honda CRV EX Auto £11,201 with fuel allowance£18,319
  • BMW X3 Xdrive SE Auto£7,675 with fuel allowance£12,449
  • Audi Q5 Audi Q5 2.0 TDI SE £10,862with fuel allowance£16,677
  • S-Tronic QuattroMercedes E Class SE Estate Auto£8,541 with fuel allowance £13,575

Furthermore, businesses will benefit as they can write-down the vehicle’s full value in the first 12 months.

Future Proof

In addition to these outstanding market leading finance offers, independent residual value advisors, CAP, have predicted the Mitsubishi Outlander will retain 49% of its on-the-road price after the £5,000 government incentive P-ICG and after three years and 30,000 miles - which is better than most combustion engined rivals.

In A Nutshell

The new, assertive Outlander PHEV offers a very comforting sense of quiet, protection and safety to its occupants – a quality car of substance designed for long-haul travelling,

it’s more economical, dynamic, safe and with outstanding environmental credentials and 4x4 capability. With this in mind, the new Outlander PHEV represents a truly segment-leading SUV.
