The British Motor Show announces the elmo Electric Motor Show 2022
- The British Motor Show announces new Electric Motor Show headline sponsorship with elmo
- EV subscription provider offers a flexible, total cost of ownership package
- Show takes place 18-21 August 2022 – advance tickets available at www.thebritishmotorshow.live
The British Motor Show has teamed up with elmo – a ground-breaking EV subscription service – to launch the elmo Electric Motor Show 2022.
elmo will become a headline partner of the event, which takes place at Farnborough International, Hants, from August 18-21.
The partnership is a perfect combination of new thinking – with The British Motor Show reinventing the concept of auto shows and elmo innovating the way people access electric cars, where cost of purchase is often seen as a barrier to entry.
elmo is an all-inclusive electric car subscription service on a mission to be the easiest way for drivers to go electric. Customers (both individuals and businesses) can book online in five minutes, get verified in 24 hours and have an electric car delivered to their door in a week.
Unlike a traditional lease, with elmo, there’s no deposit to pay and customers just give 30 days’ notice at any time to have the car collected or swapped. And unlike a lease, the monthly subscription payment includes, as standard, insurance, maintenance & servicing, breakdown cover, road tax and a carbon offset donation (to account for manufacturing emissions). elmo also gives the option to customise the package with various charging options selected by its expert team. The idea is to give drivers all the benefits of owning an EV, without the hassle of traditional ownership.
Andy Entwistle, British Motor Show CEO, added: “The Electric Motor Show was one of our most popular attractions in our launch year in 2021, and it’s set to get even bigger and better this year. One of the things our show visitors told us most last year was that they’d love to go electric but the cost appeared prohibitive. elmo addresses that – it’s an exciting new concept, just like our own. ”
Olly Jones, co-founder of elmo, added: “At elmo, our mission is to bring electric cars into the mainstream. So we are delighted to be partnering with The British Motor Show to create the elmo Electric Motor Show. The aim is to educate people about electric car driving, charging and home solutions – not to mention allowing people to experience the cars for themselves. If last year was anything to go by, it’s sure to be the family motor event of the year, and this year it’s going electric!”
