Suzuki news in brief - Introduction of Salary Sacrifice – e VITARA

Suzuki has recently announced the introduction of its participation in the increasingly popular salary sacrifice scheme highlighting e VITARA to enable eligible employees of a company to enjoy the cost saving benefits of driving an electric vehicle.

In summary, salary sacrifice is an arrangement by a company to reduce an employee’s entitlement to cash pay, usually in return for a non-cash benefit.

For an employee, benefits of choosing e VITARA through a salary sacrifice scheme include zero deposit, fixed monthly payment taken from their gross salary, income tax savings at either 20% or 40% level, all-inclusive comprehensive insurance, maintenance and VED plus a lower BIK level of 3% as an Electric Vehicle*. For employees covering higher mileages or opting to keep their car for longer periods, replacement tyres and MOTs are included too.

For an employer, benefits include reduced National Insurance contributions, lower administration, support of their company’s sustainability policies as well as being a no cost and low risk alternative to an existing company car scheme.

High Standard Equipment levels with all the tech you need
In line with Suzuki’s brand ethos and renowned product pillar of offering all the technology you need as standard; 49kWh e VITARA models offer 18-inch alloy wheels, reversing camera, front and rear parking sensors, smartphone connectivity, keyless entry and start, Heat Pump, Dual Sensor Brake Support, Lane Keep Assist and Lane Departure Prevention, Blind Spot Monitor and Rear Cross Traffic Alert plus Navigation, Integrated display system (10.25-inch instrument meter display & 10.1-inch centre display) and three years subscription to Suzuki Connect connected services. 

61kWh Motion offers heated driver’s and front passenger seats, heated steering wheel and heater outlet for rear seat occupants.

Additional standard equipment for Motion and Ultra models when optioned with ALLGRIP-e includes dual-motor electric 4WD system with Trail mode and Hill descent control.

Ordering e VITARA on Salary Sacrifice is very straightforward; all an employee needs to do is approach their local dealer for a test drive, nominate the supplying dealer and then order the car through their workplace. Once the car is available, delivery is arranged and handover can even be carried out at their home address.

* 3% company car BIK rate for vehicles with 0g/km CO₂ emissions applies during the 2025-26 tax year and will increase to 4% from the start of the 2026-27 tax year.
