Car Deal of the Day: The Vauxhall Frontera Electric feels like a trip back to the 1990s at this price

The Frontera Electric could be the perfect car for first-time EV families. It’s our Deal of the Day for October 21.

  • Spacious, practical small electric SUV
  • 186-mile range; comfortable ride
  • Only £179.74 a month 

Vauxhall is looking back to the 1990s with its latest small SUV by bringing back the Frontera name. Judging by current leasing deals, the prices are from that era, too. 

This deal from Lease Car UK through the Auto Express Buy A Car service sees the Frontera Electric coming in at a whisker under £180 a month, representing huge value for money for families considering going electric for their next workhorse.

All that's needed to get the three-year agreement up and running is a £2,504.88 initial payment, while mileage is capped at 5,000 a year. Bumping this up to 8,000 per annum will only cost your wallet an extra £20 a month. 

Compared to the nineties original, the latest Frontera has swapped rugged off-road swagger for a more family-friendly character. There's tons of room inside for kids to stretch out, while the 460-litre can swallow all their paraphernalia. 

This deal gets you the mid-spec GS with its standard-fit 17-inch alloys, black roof, tough-looking silver skid plates front and rear, plus LED rear lights. This is on top of the entry-level Design's twin 10-inch displays, wireless phone charging and smartphone connecting, and parking camera. 

The Frontera gets Vauxhall's latest sharply-designed interior with nicely-made fixtures and fittings, pairing this with comfortable driving dynamics. 

The Electric in this deal is for the smaller of the batteries on offer. Still, at 44kWh, Vauxhall promises a range of 186 miles, and in our testing other EVs wearing the British brand's badge efficiency tends to be high. Meanwhile, a 111bhp electric motor gives perfectly decent performance.
