Get up to 30,000 free miles of electricity

April 16, 2025

Everything costs a fortune these days, so it's nice to see that you can genuinely get something for free - providing you jump through a few hoops.

The first major hoop is that you'll need to buy or lease a fully-electric Volkswagen ID Buzz Cargo, or Volkswagen e-Transporter, from a Volkswagen Van Centre.

After you've navigated that little catch, you'll also have to add OVO’s Charge Anytime product to your energy tariff.

After that, though, you'll get up to 30,000 free miles over a three-year period. It's all spread out, so you can enjoy 10,000 miles each year, with the first 10,000 free miles added when they first add Charge Anytime, along with an 10,000 additional miles each year for the following two years provided you stay with the OVO Charge Anytime plan. I guess that makes it a third hoop to jump through.

Still, it's not too bad, because even at the lowest charge rate of 7p per kWh that's the equivalent of £620 - according to VW's maths.

The Charge Anytime add-on also allows electric van customers to get from a low at-home charging rate of 7p per kWh during the day or night.

The offer runs until the end of the May, after which the previous offer will resume for Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles EV customers - that's for a measly credit of up to 10,000 free miles, followed by 1,000 miles per year.

So... if you're thinking of buying a medium electric van like the Buzz Cargo of electric Transporter, then this could be the offer for you.

We've recently driven the new Transporter and it's a huge step up from the previous e-Transporter, which was made by ABT. This latest model is version of the Ford E-Transit Custom, and Volkswagen has really picked a good vehicle to base their new medium vans on.
