About Electric Car Hire London

Hiring an electric vehicle in London is one of the most practical and cost-effective decisions you can make if you are planning to drive in the capital. With the Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ) covering a large portion of Greater London and the Congestion Charge zone applying in the central area, driving a non-exempt vehicle into London carries a significant daily cost. Fully electric vehicles are currently exempt from both charges, making EV hire an immediately attractive proposition for anyone who needs to drive in and around London regularly.

RentWith offers electric car hire across London and the surrounding area. Our EV fleet includes vehicles from Tesla, Volkswagen, BMW, Nissan, and other leading manufacturers of electric passenger cars. All models are selected for a combination of range, comfort, and practicality — because an electric hire car is only useful if it can comfortably complete the journeys you need to make.

Range is a common concern for first-time EV drivers. The good news is that modern electric cars have come a long way, and our fleet includes vehicles with real-world ranges suitable for city use and beyond. For most London-based journeys — commuting, visiting clients, day trips out of the city — our EV hire options will complete your planned mileage without the need for an en-route charge. If you are planning longer journeys, our team will advise on the most suitable model and discuss charging arrangements in advance.

London's charging infrastructure is extensive and growing rapidly. The capital now has thousands of public charging points, from rapid chargers at motorway services to slower but convenient chargers in supermarket car parks, office buildings, and on street. We will provide guidance on the charging options most convenient for your hire period and the areas of London you will be visiting.

All electric vehicles are automatic by nature, making them an excellent option for urban stop-start driving. The instant torque delivery of an electric motor makes city driving genuinely enjoyable, and the near-silent operation makes for a calmer, less stressful experience compared to conventional petrol or diesel vehicles — particularly in heavy traffic.

Electric car hire in London is available by the day, week, or on a rolling monthly basis. Business hire accounts are available for companies whose employees are regularly working in London — a practical way to manage travel costs in the ULEZ zone while demonstrating commitment to lower emissions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do electric hire cars avoid the congestion charge?

Currently, fully electric vehicles are exempt from the London Congestion Charge. This provides a meaningful daily saving for drivers entering the central zone.

How far can I drive on a single charge?

Range varies by model — typically between 150 and 350 miles. We will advise on the best model for your planned journeys.

Where can I charge the car in London?

London has one of the UK's most extensive EV charging networks. We will provide guidance on convenient charging locations for your hire period.

Do I need a special licence for an electric car?

No — a standard UK driving licence is all you need. All electric cars use automatic transmission, so an automatic-only licence is also fully valid.
