Company Car Lease Fully Maintained. One Fixed Payment. Zero Hassle.
EV Lease provides fully maintained company car leases for Australian businesses of any size — from a single vehicle to fleets of hundreds. Insurance, registration, maintenance, and tyres are all included in one predictable monthly payment.
What is a Company Car Lease?
A company car lease — formally known as a Fully Maintained Operating Lease — is an arrangement where your business leases a vehicle for an agreed term and kilometre allowance. Unlike purchasing outright or a chattel mortgage, your company never owns the car. At the end of the lease, you simply return the vehicle and start fresh with a new model.
Because the car never appears on your balance sheet, it keeps your business financials clean. There is no residual value risk, no depreciation to manage, and no large capital outlay. The vehicle is fully maintained by EV Lease for the entire lease period — covering insurance, registration, servicing, tyres, and roadside assistance.
A single fixed monthly rental covers all of these components. This makes budgeting simple and eliminates unexpected vehicle expenses for your finance team. Fuel cards can also be provided on an additional budget or chargeback basis.
What's Included in a Company Car Lease
Comprehensive Insurance
Fully managed comprehensive insurance included. No excess charged on insurance repairs.
Registration
Annual registration renewal is handled by EV Lease. No paperwork, no reminders needed.
Tyres & Maintenance
All scheduled servicing and replacement tyres are included for the lease term.
Roadside Assistance
24/7 roadside assistance Australia-wide. A replacement vehicle is provided while yours is under repair.
Tax and Financial Benefits
A fully maintained operating lease delivers significant tax and administrative advantages for Australian businesses:
The EV Advantage for Company Car Fleets
Choosing an electric vehicle for your company car lease delivers benefits beyond just running costs. Under the Australian Government's FBT exemption, eligible battery electric vehicles (BEVs) attract $0 Fringe Benefits Tax — one of the most compelling reasons businesses are transitioning their fleets to electric right now.
For a fleet of even five vehicles, the FBT saving alone can amount to tens of thousands of dollars per year. Combined with lower servicing costs (EVs have far fewer moving parts than petrol vehicles), predictable charging costs, and the reputational benefit of a sustainable fleet, the case for EV company cars is strong.
FBT exemption eligibility: Applies to full battery electric vehicles (BEVs) first held and used on or after 1 July 2022, priced below the Luxury Car Tax threshold ($91,387 for 2026–27). PHEVs lost eligibility from 1 April 2025.
Who Does a Company Car Lease Suit?
A fully maintained company car lease is well suited to businesses that:
- Need to provide tool-of-trade or benefit vehicles to employees without capital outlay.
- Want to expand fleet capacity to meet seasonal or project-based demand.
- Need to accommodate interstate or international consultants and visitors.
- Are scaling headcount and need vehicles ready for new starters quickly.
- Want to transition their fleet to electric vehicles and capture the FBT exemption.
- Prefer fixed, predictable costs over variable vehicle ownership expenses.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the minimum fleet size for a company car lease?
EV Lease provides company car leases for fleets of any size — including single vehicles. There is no minimum fleet requirement.
Can we mix EVs and non-EVs in our fleet?
Yes. While we specialise in electric vehicles, we can accommodate mixed fleets. We'd recommend speaking to our team about maximising the FBT exemption across your EV vehicles.
Who is responsible for the car if an employee leaves?
The lease remains with the company, not the individual employee. If a staff member departs, the vehicle can be reassigned to another employee or returned at the end of its term.
Are lease payments tax deductible?
Lease payments on a fully maintained operating lease are generally treated as a deductible operating expense for the business. We recommend confirming the specifics with your accountant.
What happens at the end of the lease?
At lease end, the vehicle is returned to EV Lease in good condition within the agreed kilometre allowance. There is no buyout obligation. You can then start a new lease on updated vehicles.
