Step 2: Choosing your geographical area
Once you've chosen your location, it's time to choose your brand and your city. Why should you do this? The city, department or region where you live or work also influences the assistance you can obtain. It's very important to select the right city to avoid any surprises during the simulation.
Step 3: Choice of purchase method
You must then indicate the type of contract you are considering for your cat:
- LOA: lease with purchase option
- LLD: long-term leasing

The type of purchase you make influences the aid you can obtain.

Why an electric car simulator?
We talk to future electric vehicle drivers all day long, and many of them only talk about the ecological benefits of the electric vehicle. We also want as many people as possible to realize the economic benefits of the electric vehicle and how this new product can help them optimize their expenses in the long term.
Want to go electric?
But savings on running costs are not the only advantage of electric vehicles.
Owning an electric vehicle means not only fuel savings, but also a number of advantages that are still - too - little known to consumers. According toUFC Que Choisirthe electric car is by far the most cost-effective solution for consumers. If you compare an internal combustion engine vehicle with an electric vehicle, the conclusion is clear: the electric vehicle is much less expensive. And it's the same result when comparing a hybrid or an electric vehicle: the electric vehicle wins hands down, costing half as much as a hybrid.
Maintenance savings
An electric car has very few moving parts (fewer than 10, compared with several thousand for conventional vehicles). As a result, electric vehicles require simpler, less expensive maintenance. Maintenance of your electric vehicle is 4 times less expensive according to theAvere (National Association for the Development of Electric Mobility).
Assistance for the purchase of an electric vehicle
Whether you're a professional or a private customer, you can take advantage of a range of grants for your next electric car: ecological bonus, regional grants, conversion bonus. In total, you can save up to €15,000 on your next purchase.
You can find all the information you need in our files.
Assistance for the purchase of an electric vehicle
Here, too, you can save money on your electric vehicle. Several major cities offer free parking (e.g. Paris, Aix-en-Provence, Nice) or special rates for electric vehicle owners (e.g. Lyon, Marseille).
When you consider the parking rates in some cities, these are no small savings. Depending on the city, you can also take advantage of dedicated parking spaces for your electric vehicle and charge up at the same time.
