Scottish Power has partnered with Arnold Clark to offer electric car buyers at the dealership group an ‘end-to-end’ EV package. This sees elements such as grants, energy, and charge points bundled together to help encourage EV buyers further.
The EV package starts with the Plug-in Car Grant, applied at the dealership to any eligible electric vehicle. From there, eligible customers will also receive a fully-installed home charge point, with EVHS grant applied, and they can sign up to Scottish Power’s EV tailored energy tariff – backed by a 100% renewable electricity guarantee.
The Scottish Power charge point is smart charge enabled, with users able to remotely control vehicle charging, and schedule charge times to make use of off-peak energy.
Keith Anderson, Scottish Power CEO, said: “The UK needs to decarbonise transport faster and we have to make the switch to electric vehicles simpler. That’s why we’re accelerating the switch to electric vehicles by giving customers everything they need to make the change hassle-free through our new end to end electric vehicle package and partnership with Arnold Clark.”
Eddie Hawthorne, Arnold Clark Chief Executive and Group Managing Director, said: "The landscape of the automotive market is changing and inevitably the buying behaviour of our customers. Arnold Clark will continue to provide great value for money and knowledge on a range of electric vehicles throughout the UK with the additional incentive that our new partners, Scottish Power, will provide a network of recharging points to keep you on the move with confidence.”
