Calculate your savings

There's never been a better time to buy an EV

Electric vehicles just got a lot more affordable, thanks to the introduction of the fringe benefit tax exemption for eligible electric vehicles in Australia. Your next car could be tax and GST-free, only through a novated lease, if it qualifies for the FBT exemption. Use our leasing calculator to see how much you could save, including bundling your running costs together with regular deductions from your pay.

Why Flare Cars?

Traditional car buying

  • Arduously slow

    Calling dealers, arranging test drives, wading through the credit check process—it’s a ton of work just to get a better deal.

  • A lonely island

    Financiers, dealers, vehicle delivery—it takes a village to bring all parties together. This might mean you’re filling out similar, manual forms, or repeating yourself multiple times to different people.

  • Clear as mud

    Lenders and dealers aren’t always upfront about how they make their money, and salary packaging or novated leasing may not be clearly (or consistently) explained to employees.

The Flare Cars difference

  • Less effort, maximum benefit

    We get it, life is busy. Flare Cars does all the hard work for you, from comparing the market to arranging for your salary packaging payments.

  • This time, it’s personal

    A dedicated leasing consultant will manage all parties and processes for you, consolidating information and managing each step through our fully digital experience (no paper forms, we promise).

  • Transparently clear

    With one simple, all-inclusive management fee, our costs are fully disclosed upfront so you can make an informed decision. No junk add-ons or insurance products that may diminish your savings, either.

Got questions?

We’ve got answers

  • What is novated car leasing and how does it work?

    Novated leasing is an ATO-approved benefit in which all the costs for running a car are taken directly out of your salary, through a combination of pre and post-tax deductions by your employer. Flare Cars holds the budgeted money for your car related expenses, for example: finance, fuel, insurance, tyres and servicing you so you can pay for your car expenses as they arise from the budget, so you are never out of pocket.

  • How do I save money with a novated lease?

    By doing a novated lease, your taxable income is reduced so you pay less income tax, you don’t finance the GST on a new or used car from a dealership, all your running costs are paid for out of your pre-tax salary, and you don’t pay GST on any of your running costs. You will save thousands of dollars over the life of a lease.

  • What term can I do a lease over?

    You can lease a car for between 12 and 60 months – so it’s really flexible depending on your needs and budget.
