Tesla’s UK division has introduced a new financing initiative aimed at enhancing accessibility to its popular Model 3 and Model Y electric vehicles, marking a strategic move amidst intensifying competition in the electric vehicle (EV) market.
The program, prominently featured in Tesla’s promotional materials, offers consumers the opportunity to purchase the reengineered Model 3 and Model Y with 0% Annual Percentage Rate (APR) financing. Available for both Hire Purchases (HP) and Personal Contract Purchases (PCP), the offer requires new orders to be placed and delivered by September 30, 2024.

Auto Express UK highlighted the appeal of Tesla’s 0% APR PCP offer, noting potential monthly payments as low as £262 for the Model 3 Rear Wheel Drive (RWD) over a 48-month period, albeit with an $11,600 downpayment and mileage restrictions.
Tesla enthusiasts have enthusiastically shared the news on social media, showcasing an email from the company emphasizing the affordability and benefits of owning a Model 3 or Model Y under this promotional scheme. “Making Model 3 and Model Y more accessible, now available for 0% interest rate — Go ahead, take the road trip in Model 3 or Model Y this summer,” Tesla’s communication stated, highlighting the vehicles’ range and versatile features.

The 0% APR initiative mirrors successful strategies previously implemented by Tesla in other markets, such as China, underscoring its potential to stimulate demand and attract new customers amidst a competitive automotive landscape.
Tesla’s Model 3 and Model Y are already celebrated for their safety features, performance capabilities, and advanced technology, making them formidable contenders in the EV market. With the added incentive of 0% APR financing, Tesla aims to solidify its position as a leader in affordable electric mobility solutions.
