If you’re either a PCO driver looking for an upgrade, or aspiring to become a driver, it’s fair to say that car ownership can appear like a distant or confusing dream.
With large upfront costs and ongoing payments, it can often seem that PCO ownership is out of reach.
That’s where rent to buy PCO cars come in.
As you read on, we’ll be exploring just what’s meant by rent to buy PCO cars. We’ll be looking at the advantages that they offer and then looking at what makes us different at Moove .
What is Meant by Rent to Buy PCO Cars?
Rent to buy PCO cars are just what their name suggests. They allow you to rent your PCO car while also working towards outright ownership. By choosing this route, drivers have no need to worry about hefty deposits, extortionate interest rates or large one-off payments.
With this version of PCO financing, you get the chance to get behind the wheel of your own PCO car with either a brand-new model or a top-quality used one. You commit to the car for a period of time (typically 3-5 years), and you spread your payments over this term.
So, how is this different to just renting a car? Well, with rent to buy PCOs, with every payment you’re getting closer to outright ownership, with every payment contributing. Sound good?
As you’ll see, there are even more benefits on top of this.
What Rent to Buy PCOs are Available?
When you start to explore rent to buy PCO cars, you’ll find that there’s a wide range to choose from.
Some of the things to consider as you make your choice are the running costs, comfort, boot space and eco credentials. Remember, it’s important to find a PCO car that suits you, but you also need to make sure that it’s a choice that will lead to happy customers.
Here’s a look at some of the rent to buy PCO car types that are available:
Hybrids
Hybrid PCOs offer a compromise between fuel efficiency and power. There are popular models available from the likes of Toyota and Hyundai. However, with Uber’s commitment to a fully electric fleet in London in 2025, committing to a new Hybrid car now might not be a sensible move in the long term.
Electric PCOs
An electric PCO vehicle could be the ideal option for you if you’re interested in the eco-friendly aspect of driving and if you looking to save on fuel.It will also help you stay ahead of changes to rules for Private Hire Vehicles in London which aim to phase out non-electric cars.
An electric PCO car also has other benefits such as zero emissions and escaping ULEZ charges . There are plenty of models to choose from and of course, Moove have a great selection of KIA cars available as well as used Teslas.
Executive Cars
It could be that your target customer is more premium and you need a car that can be used for executive jobs. The likes of a Mercedes E-Class or BMW 5 series could be ideal. Just remember that these larger cars will attract higher running costs.
