The first electric vehicle as part of the Better Place project has been introduced in Israel.
The Renault Fluence ZE will be available for US$34,865 with buyers given a choice of service packages ranging from 12,400miles to 18,600miles. The service packages will include installation and maintenance of a home recharging system and access to Better Place’s replacement stations and road-side service.
The package costs $309 a month including VAT for 20,000km and $454 a month for 30,000km. A one-time, three year subscription for up to 25,000km a year costs $44,680.
According to Better Place, the package cuts the cost of vehicle maintenance by 20 per cent.
