Alfa Romeo has introduced a new personal contract hire scheme, named Flex & Free, allowing customers to experience an electric vehicle (EV).
The scheme centres around the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica Speciale and is designed to offer a temporary driving arrangement with the option to extend, switch, or terminate after six months.
The Flex & Free initiative is structured to support drivers considering the transition to EVs by allowing them to evaluate the suitability of an EV for their lifestyle without a long-term obligation.
The contract includes additional benefits such as a complimentary wall box for home charging and an included service plan from Alfa Romeo.
Managed by Stellantis Financial Services, the scheme permits customers, after at least five months, to give one month’s notice to either end their personal contract hire agreement or select a different vehicle on a new finance agreement.
Alfa Romeo UK managing director Jules Tilstone said: “This offer is designed for those who want to try an EV without the fear of commitment. We are confident that when someone experiences the Junior Elettrica and feels that special Alfa Romeo DNA all our models share, they’ll fall in love with it.
“They’ll also benefit from the free wall box to make home charging simple and affordable.”
The Junior Elettrica Speciale is available under the ‘Flex & Free’ personal contract hire from £499 per month, on a 48-month term with an initial rental of £1,497.
Alfa Romeo is also offering an EV grant that reduces the cost of the Junior Elettrica by £1,500.
The vehicle itself is equipped with a 156hp electric motor and has a range of up to 255 miles on a single charge, according to WLTP standards.
It supports fast charging, allowing for a 20%-80% charge using a 100kW charger.
The exterior features a sports styling kit while the interior is furnished with a range of amenities, including an electrically operated driver’s seat with massage function, a leather steering wheel, and advanced driver assistance systems.
Standard equipment also comprises a heat pump, a Mode 3 charging cable, and an 11kW on-board charger.
