Go electric!

A fully charged battery with a capacity of 40 kW will enable you to drive 200 to 250 kilometers. If you drive sensibly, you will achieve even more. Speed has the most effect on the amount of power drawn down from your battery, so you are advised to keep to the permitted speed limits. There are also other factors that may have an effect on your driving range:

• high or low temperatures (resulting in continuous operation of the air conditioning/heating)
• a (too) sporty driving style
• driving with a strong headwind
• a fully loaded car
• driving uphill for a long period of time

Yes. If you live in the Flemish Region you are eligible for a subsidy. The Flemish government grants what it calls a "zero-emissions subsidy" for newcars that are powered totally by electricity. You will find details of the exact amounts and the terms and conditions for claiming this subsidy on the website of Flanders.
LeasePlan will handle the application for your subsidy. If your application is approved, the Flemish government will deposit the amount of the subsidy in your account.

Our PrivateLease product does not include a home recharging system.
If you would like to have a recharging system for your electric car, we can of course order one for you. You will receive a separate invoice for it.
The home recharging system that you can order via LeasePlan is the Wallbox Pulsar Type1, with a maximum charging power of 11 kW. This home recharging system costs €1694, including VAT.
The price includes:

• the device: Wallbox Pulsar Type 1 with a fixed cable 5 metres in length
• attaching the device to the wall
• inspection and approval: after installation, the device is inspected and approved by an independent party
  There is a 2-year warranty on the Wallbox

Your existing power supply will probably be sufficient, because your car is recharged mainly at night when you are not using other electrical appliances. Your recharging station can be programmed to operate at the right power and at the right time so that any potential overload to your electricity network can be avoided as much as possible.

If you are not able to recharge at home, you can use a public recharging point. More and more recharging points are being installed in Belgium. Use the Plugsurfing appor go to www.plugsurfing.com for a handy list of all the recharging points in Belgium and Europe.
Can't find a recharging point in your local area? Then you can lodge a request for one based on the Flemish government's "recharging point follows car" principle. According to this principle, recharging points will be installed in locations where people need them. With each request, the authorities come to see whether recharging at the person's own premises is possible or not. If it's not, they will check on the presence and occupancy rate of existing recharging points within a radius of 500 metres. If they then find there is insufficient recharge infrastructure, a new recharging point with access for the public will be installed.
