Octopus Electric Vehicles has been named as an approved leasing partner by Xpeng for its G6 electric SUV.

The deal means the G6 is available through Octopus’s all-in-one salary sacrifice scheme, which includes the car, charger, home energy bundle, maintenance, and insurance.

Octopus now has more than 100 EVs in its portfolio.

Octopus Electric Vehicles procurement director Alvin Castillo said: “A few years ago, there were just a handful of EVs on the market – today we can offer more than 100 different models to drivers. 

“Prices continue to become more affordable, the ranges continue to grow, and newer brands like Xpeng are bringing a level of innovation that is helping to push some of the better-known brands to up their game.”

William Brown, managing director at Xpeng’s UK distributor IM Group, said: “We’re pleased to team up with Octopus EV to make the Xpeng G6 even more accessible to drivers across the UK. 

“The scheme offers outstanding value and makes it easier than ever for employees to choose a premium, highly specified and electric vehicle with real long-distance capability and next-generation technology.”
