How should you use this information?
Consider your replacement date, everyday journeys, and the choices your employer’s programme supports.
Do not price the concept car
Concept #2 range and dimensional figures are not production specifications and must not be used to estimate a salary sacrifice quote.
Wait for homologated UK data
P11D, production WLTP, charging and final equipment should move into the configurator only when attributable production data are available.
Keep lifecycle separate from quote readiness
An announced vehicle can be useful research before complete verified UK vehicle data exist, but it is not a live employer quote until a provider can quote the real UK car.
