In response to the UK Government’s announcement that electric vehicles (EVs) will face a new pay-per-mile charge from 2028, OMODA & Jaecoo UK have introduced an EV Tax Rebate — an initiative designed to benefit drivers now and protect them against future running costs.
From April 2028-29, fully electric cars in the UK will be taxed at 3p per mile, as part of a broader shift to road-usage based charges.
To offset this change, Omoda & Jaecoo now offer a rebate equivalent to 20,000 miles at 3p per mile — roughly £600 in tax savings.
The rebate applies to buyers of the electric SUV models Omoda E5 and Jaecoo E5, provided the purchase is made via an approved 48-month finance plan through the national dealership network.
Omoda E5 (MY25): 61 kWh battery, with a WLTP-estimated range of up to 267 miles. Supports fast DC charging (130 kW), AC charging (10.3 kW), and includes an integrated heat pump for improved efficiency in colder weather.
Jaecoo E5: Also uses a 61 kWh LFP battery, offers up to 248 miles range, a 207 hp motor, fast-charging capability (DC up to 110 kW), and a 0–62 mph time of 7.7 seconds.
The rebate means early adopters don’t just avoid the looming EV tax — they enjoy immediate savings, making electric motoring more affordable and predictable.
For customers in Eastbourne and the wider South East, this rebate makes the switch to electric SUVs from OMODA and Jaecoo more attractive than ever. Rather than waiting for future taxes to hit, buyers get an upfront financial benefit — helping to lower the lifetime cost of ownership.
By combining this rebate with the efficiency and practicality of EV SUVs like the Omoda E5 and Jaecoo E5, Eastbourne motorists can enjoy greener driving and long-term savings.
