- New lease deals for April 2025
- From electric SUVs to affordable hatchbacks
- Businesses and employees save £s with salary sacrifice
- Fixed monthly fees mean no unexpected ‘tariff’ hikes…
Uncertain global economics got you scrutinising your monthly budget? Fear not, because we’ve lined-up some of our most tempting lease deals ever, fresh for the new financial year.
With recent tariff hikes sending shockwaves through financial markets, we’ve been hard at work finding the most affordable lease deals to help calm the nerves.
It’s extra important right now amid global trade wars, businesses feeling the pinch, and households up and down the land receiving eye-opening new council tax invoices through the letterbox.
Salary Sacrifice
Alongside these new lease deals (see below for full details, and they cover all sorts of vehicles) we also want to ram home the potential savings that both businesses and employees can make with a Salary Sacrifice scheme. Again, it’s a good thing to consider right now if you’re looking to make big cost savings.
What is Salary Sacrifice?
An employer sets up a scheme that lets an employee forgo a chunk of their monthly salary in order to get a brand new lease car, or even a used lease vehicle.
- How the employee wins: The cost of the lease deal is taken directly from a person's gross salary before tax. If you are in the 40% tax bracket, you can save up to 40% on your monthly lease fee. And by choosing an electric vehicle (EV), employees pay just 3% Benefit in Kind (BIK) for 2025/26 (rising to 4% for 2026/27).
- How the employer wins: They can save tax and National Insurance contributions on the sum of money that has been sacrificed, while also helping to retain and reward staff with more employee perks.
We can set up a Salary Sacrifice scheme for businesses. Just get in touch with our dedicated Salary Sacrifice team.
Top 7 lease deals for April 2025:
Skoda Kamiq | Monte Carlo | £220.96 per month*
The versatile Kamiq is Skoda’s answer to the VW T-Cross or Ford Puma.
And we’re a big fan of the Kamiq's range-topping ‘Monte Carlo’ trim level here at Select, which marries affordability with funky exterior styling.
Expect black alloy wheels, heated sports seats, and a heated steering wheel.
Renault 5 E-Tech | Evolution | £239.26 per month*
The electric Renault 5 E-Tech was recently named ‘Car of the Year 2025’ by the European Car Of The Year jury - and it can be yours for less than £240 per month*.
This particular variant gets the ‘Urban Range’ 40 kWh battery that brings you a range of up to 190 miles between charges while the ‘Evolution’ trim unlocks 18-inch alloys, wireless phone charging, and a 10.1-inch touchscreen with Google services automatically built in.
Nissan Qashqai | E-Power Acenta | £246.65 per month*
The Qashqai is one of the best family-sized SUVs on the leasing market and it was also the third most-registered car in the UK last year (behind the Kia Sportage and Ford Puma).
This tantalising lease deal is for a Qashqai with the desirable hybrid ‘E-Power’ engine, which delivers upwards of 54 mpg while lowering your CO2 emissions.
BMW 1 Series | 120 Sport | £292.51 per month*
Premium executive hatchbacks don’t get more desirable than the BMW 1 Series, a car that was completely overhauled last year.
This deal is for an entry-level ‘Sport’ model with a punchy 170 hp petrol engine and fuel economy in excess of 50 miles to the gallon.
BMW iX1 | eDrive20 Sport | £328.50 per month*
The iX1 is BMW’s most compact and affordable electric SUV.
This particular special offer is for an entry-level ‘Sport’ model equipped with a 64.8 kWh battery which unlocks a range of up to 293 miles between charges as well as power of 204 hp. It’s also a great alternative to the Audi Q4 e-tron.
VW Tiguan | Match | £339.59 per month*
Volkswagen’s Tiguan is a smart and stylish SUV that comes with a massive 652-litre boot - which is close to the luggage capacity you get with the VW Passat estate.
This deal is for a Tiguan in the mid-range ‘Match’ trim, which brings you goodies like an electric tailgate, dynamic headlights with cornering function, and silver roof rails. A 2.0-litre diesel engine also provides 150 hp, 360 Nm of torque, and a 2,000 kg towing capacity.
Renault Rafale | Techno Esprit Alpine | £376.42 per month*
Our list of the best lease deals wouldn’t be complete without a plug-in hybrid - a powertrain that bridges the gap between traditional combustion engines and full-on EVs. And the sleek, coupe-shaped Renault Rafale SUV is well worth a look.
You can expect an EV range of up to 62 miles on a full battery as well as rapid acceleration. The mid-range ‘Techno Esprit Alpine’ trim boasts Matrix LED headlights, Alcantara upholstery, heated front seats, a heated steering wheel, and a 9.3-inch head-up display.
