The new ID. Buzz Cargo has been approved for the government funded Plug-in Van Grant (PiVG) - with a potential deduction of up to £5,000 from the £48,541 OTR pricing1.

The Government is encouraging drivers and businesses to make the switch to electric vehicles. One of the ways it's doing this is by offering generous incentives and grants to make owning an electric vehicle cheaper.

The OZEV Plug-In Van grant will pay for 35% off the price of an electric van, up to a maximum of £5,0001. Vans qualify for the grant if they have emissions of 50g/km or less and a range of at least 60 miles for full electric vehicles. The OZEV Plug-In Van Grant is subject to full terms and conditions and eligibility may be revised or withdrawn at any time without prior notice.
