Audi E-Tron GT electric lease deals

Leasing an Audi e-tron GT in the UK

Are there electric supercars?  

Quite surprisingly this is turning into reality with many manufacturers now battling for the spot of the best electric supercar engineers in the world. Even Ferrari, Lamborghini and Bentley are now looking into electric transformation (as they will have to do in the UK by 2030 / 2035).

But car producers, like Audi, turned a 2018 concept into a reality with the e-tron GT becoming available to order in 2021 for UK customers (although some may have noticed its cameo in the Avengers, being driven by Tony Stark).

The luxury sportscar from Audi is anything but a novelty and UK customers are now turning away from petrol equivalents to enjoy the joys of electric performance. And with the Porsche Taycan, in saloon, Cross Turismo and Sport Turismo format, as a direct competitor there is real credibility to this automotive segment.

With more similar cars from brands like the Lotus, Maserati and Polestar due in in 2023 / 2034, the e-car lease team expect this to become a competitive area. But why get an EV sports car?

For some business leasing customers, this is a tax efficient way in which to enjoy this type of car. Put simply, the 2% BiK is literally thousands of pounds (in company car tax) cheaper than petrol equivalents; it’s a financial “no-brainer” to move into the pure electric vehicle. But it isn’t just business users, directors and fleet managers benefitting from the UK’s favourable tax regime of fully electric.

Personal customers are also enjoying EVs too, as they have started to realise that not only are they quicker, better-looking and easier to drive but they are also cheaper to run, service and fuel. Plus, they form part of our worldwide decarbonisation approach.

In terms of specification choices in the GT, choose from:

• GT – starting at around £83,100 this entry model offers 20” alloys, LED headlights, MMI navigation plus, sports seats with electric adjustment, panoramic roof, suspension with damper control, privacy glass, heated front seats, power-operated tailgate, climate control, pre-conditioning, 3-spoke flat bottom steering wheel, Audi virtual cockpit cruise control, keyless-go, rear view camera and Audi pre-sense front and basic.

You can also add some amazing packages like the comfort and sound pack at £3,950 (includes parking assist package, Bang & Olufsen, ambient lighting package, matrix LED headlights), the comfort and sound plus pack at £8,190 (adds adaptive air suspension, seat ventilation, sport seat pro and upgraded leather combination)

• GT Vorsprung – at around £109,000 this top line model offers upgraded 20” alloys, matrix LED headlights, sport seats pro, HUD, night vision assistant, tour pack, city assist pack, Bang & Olufsen, heated front and rear seats, adaptive air suspension, front seat ventilation with massage function and ambient lighting plus.

And Audi have simplified sports performance on the GT with just one 85 kWh usable battery with 390 kW (or 523hp) available. A separate RS model is available to buy or lease, but this is treated as a separate vehicle. Expect the GT e-tron to deliver 4.1 second 0 – 62 times, 152mph top speeds and 472lb-ft of torque. On range, this car will cover about 220 miles (combined) in colder climates and 295 miles (combined) in warmer climates.

For charging, the 11 kW AC max results in 9 hours 0 – 100% charge times with the 265 kW DC rapid charging max providing for 17 minutes 10 – 80% charge times. The GT e-tron is one of the quickest charging vehicles available to lease or buy in the UK. Note that a 22 kW AC charging upgrade is also available which reduces the 0 – 100% time to just under 5 hours.

Enjoying a supercar in electric format isn’t just for business and salary sacrifice customers. It is possible to arrange a personal lease on this car too. However, please note that contract hire is both a usership product and this is credit based.

For any e-car lease customer, the price they receive will be based on a contract hire arrangement which means that the vehicle is used for a predetermined time and returned at contract cessation; it is not possible to buy the vehicle. In addition, both companies and individuals must complete a finance proposal form for us to send to the selected finance company on the deal. This is not suitable if you have poor credit or insufficient accounts on Companies House.
