Get your electric car
Things to think about
After your dealer orders, you’ll be given a date to pick up your electric car when it’s ready.
When the big day arrives
Your dealer will demonstrate how to use it. They’ll also show you how to charge your car.
To collect your vehicle, you need to bring:
- Proof of identity, like a UK passport or driving licence for the customer or their appointee
- The driving licence if another driver is collecting and driving the vehicle away
- The PIN we sent you. You can see this in your online account
Final checks
Test drive your electric car and ask your dealer to show you its features. This is to make sure you feel confident using it so you can get the most out of your car. Complete your checklist with them before you drive away.
- Ask your dealer to talk you through charging your car so you feel confident
- Your lease begins when you enter your PIN so check you’re happy with the car and there are no visible problems or damage
- Check your name and your drivers' names are on your new insurance cover note
- Give your dealer your contact details so they can send you service reminders
