If you’re interested in a BYD or electric Motability car, it helps to know more about how the process works:
You can join the Motability Scheme if you receive a qualifying mobility allowance and you have at least 12 months left. This includes the higher rate mobility part of PIP and the higher rate mobility part of DLA in the UK. Find a full list of eligible allowances and rates here.
Once you’ve confirmed you’re eligible, you’ll need to choose a BYD Motability car to suit you, whether that’s the spacious BYD ATTO 3 SUV, the compact city BYD Dolphin or the brilliant SEAL U DM-i.
Next, think about the type of adaptations you’ll need. Whether you need help with steering or getting in and out of your car, installation will be taken care of for you once you’ve chosen your car.
The allowance you receive will be exchanged for an electric Motability car. Your car payments will be made by your allowance provider, so you don’t have to do anything. If your allowance doesn’t cover the total cost, an Advance Payment may be needed to top this up. This is a fixed payment paid upfront, calculated depending on the cost of the car.
You can place your order with BYD. You’ll need a few things like a UK passport, National Insurance number, driving license and your grant award letter. You can also apply for BYD Motability online.
You can choose whether you’d prefer to charge your car at home or on the go with a public charger. If you choose a home charger, Motability will take care of charger installation for you. You’ll also receive a Motability Go Charge card so you can top up at over 50,000 charge points. If you can’t install a charger at home, you’ll receive a subscription to the BP Pulse Network to charge at public charging stations.
When your car is ready, your dealer will check it over. Your lease begins as soon as you collect your car, or you could choose to have your new BYD Motability car delivered if your dealer offers this. You’ll be asked to do a quick check of the vehicle's controls to ensure it’s suited to your needs, make sure your details are correct, and then you can enjoy your new BYD Motability car.
