Electric car deals: here are 5 great offers to quickly ditch your gasoline car
With exorbitant prices at gas stations, it’s time to get an electric car! Here is a selection of five models for various uses, from city cars to SUVs, all at amazing prices.
A city car: Citroën ë-C3
For those looking for a budget-friendly small electric car, the C3 remains an essential option. It’s available starting at 12,990 €, after applying a discount of 1,300 € and a CEE subsidy of 6,150 €. While this price point results in a range of 205 km, it’s sufficient for a vehicle meant for daily short trips. Its 5 doors and 5 seats make it convenient compared to competitors that offer only 4 seats. For greater versatility, the larger battery provides a range of just over 300 km along with 100 kW DC fast charging.
An urban SUV: Fiat 600e
Fiat is cutting prices on its electric models. This applies to the 500e, but we’re focusing here on the more versatile 600e, an urban SUV that’s 4.18 meters long with a trunk capacity of 360 liters. Its 54 kWh battery provides a range of 406 km in mixed conditions, sufficient for daily commutes and occasional longer trips (it features a 100 kW DC charging port). Listed at 36,400 € in the catalog, the vehicle comes with a discount of 5,000 € and a buy-back bonus of up to 3,000 € (for the resale of a model over ten years old destined for destruction). In addition, there’s the EU incentive, which ranges from 3,600 to 6,150 €. With the mini bonus, the price drops to 22,250 €, an excellent deal for a SUV suitable for a small family that can also help reduce fuel costs.
A compact SUV: Kia EV4
This compact model comes with a 3,500 € subsidy. Additionally, since it is assembled in Europe with a European battery, it qualifies for an enhanced EU subsidy of at least 4,700 €. This reduces the price from 38,690 € to 30,490 €. It can even be lower for low-income households, with the EU subsidy potentially reaching 8,100 €.
At this price, you get an EV4 with 204 hp and a range of 440 km, which is more than sufficient for daily use. The standard equipment is also very generous, including hands-free access, dual-zone automatic climate control, 12.3-inch touchscreen navigation, a rear camera, front and rear parking sensors, and adaptive cruise control.
There’s just one issue that might cause hesitation: a fast charging capacity of only 108 kW. On the other hand, it comes standard with 11 kW AC charging. Kia’s advantage is its 7-year warranty.
A family SUV: Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross
To keep its factories running, Renault shares models with Nissan and Mitsubishi, but this comes with risks! In fact, Mitsubishi has been offering a clone of the electric Scénic, the Eclipse Cross, for several months now, and doesn’t hesitate to promote it with significant discounts. The new 67 kWh LFP battery version is available for just 29,900 € thanks to a 6,600 € discount and a minimum CEE subsidy of 4,800 €! At this price, it offers a WLTP combined range of 467 km, which is decent, along with a strong maximum DC charging speed of 165 kW. It’s clearly the best offer currently available for a family electric car, plus it’s made in France.
Sedan: Tesla Model 3
Of course, the Model Y remains the best-seller, especially since it also enjoys significant benefits such as an enhanced EU subsidy. But if you prefer a sedan over an SUV, the Model 3 offers the best value in that category. With a 3,000 € buyback bonus and a 400 € EU subsidy, the Propulsion version costs 33,590 €, an excellent price for a family car that’s 4.72 meters long. Moreover, after an update at the start of the school year that included new tires, it now boasts a WLTP combined range of 572 km. It also features rapid charging at 175 kW. Another offer is a 0% interest loan provided by the brand.
