At the moment, my Dad gets a company car though and the Tesla Model 3 just popped up as an option on their portal. He and serveral of his colleagues are in the process of swapping.

My Dad does about 20,000 miles a year for work.

This is not widely known I think but there are significant tax advantages now available in the UK for low emissions/electric cars provided as a benefit in kind/through salary sacrifice schemes even where the car gets no business use at all.

It makes sense when the distances to travel are not long and even more sense for the fleet operators. The maintenance costs are so much lower.
