SELECT Car Leasing has teamed up with Zap-Map, the EV charge point locator, to offer three months of free premium membership for each new electric car lease.
Zap-Map’s premium package boasts has enhanced features over the no-cost version.
These include the ability to home-in on charge points using a variety of enhanced filters, such as ‘user rating’ and ‘multiple charger locations’, as well as adding unlimited vehicles to the app and saving unlimited route plans.
Select Car Leasing is fully behind the electric revolution, as we help customers transition from traditionally-fuelled cars and vans to electrified models, so we’re pleased to partner with a platform that really shares our ambitions.
We want to make driving an EV not just accessible and attainable, but also enjoyable and hassle-free. And with Zap-Map, the stress of locating and paying for EV charging is completely erased.
