Wanted to own a has introduced a subscription plan for the electric SUV. In simple words, you can drive a brand new Nexon EV for a prescribed time and pay rent for it every month. The homegrown carmaker has joined hands with Orix Auto Infrastructure Services for this initiative. At present, the manufacturer only offers the mid-spec XZ+ variant under this plan. Here are the predefined plans:

Tenure	Monthly Plan (Inclusive of taxes)
18 months	Rs 47,900
24 months	Rs 44,900
36 months	Rs 41,900

Sure, the rates may seem pricey at first, but if you intend to use the EV for a limited time, purchasing it on a subscription basis is much better than buying one outright from the showroom. Once the formalities are completed, a charger will be set up at your home and the EV delivered at your doorstep. But before you take the plunge, take a look at some numbers to gauge the benefits of this subscription plan:

Monthly Tenure Calculation	Total Amount Paid By The End Of Contract	Savings when compared to a Nexon EV XZ+ (Rs 14.99 lakh*)
18 x 47,900	Rs 8.62 lakh	Rs 6.37 lakh
24 x 44,900	Rs 10.78 lakh	Rs 4.21 lakh
36 x 41,900	Rs 15.08 lakh	- Rs 9,000

The 18 month package makes sense for those wanting a Nexon EV for a short term. The savings swell when you factor in the fact that you don't have to pay for the registration fees, comprehensive insurance, routine maintenance and road-side assistance, all of which are included in the subscription. Apart from the monthly rent, you only have to spend on the electricity consumption. That said, if you intend to keep your Nexon EV for the long haul (more than two years), it's better to buy it.

Subscribing to one makes sense for buyers who want to try out an electric car without committing to one in the long run. Given that EV adoption is still in its nascent stage in India, subscription plans such as this allows buyers to warm up to battery-operated cars.

After the subscription term finishes, you can either extend your tenure or return the vehicle. You can buy the Nexon EV post the subscription period by paying a settlement fee. Subscription plans for the Nexon EV are currently available in Delhi/NCR, Mumbai, Pune, Hyderabad and Bengaluru.
