- The Electric Car Scheme shares the most exciting new number plates for EV owners
- RE25 NEW, SO25 LAR, and CL25 EAN among the top EV-related plates available
- DVLA has already prohibited over 3,400 number plate combinations
With the launch of the new ‘25 plates, The Electric Car Scheme has compiled a list of some of the best number plate options available, while also revealing the combinations that have already been blacklisted.
From 1st March, the latest 2025 registration plates will become available, offering around seven million new number plate possibilities. Many drivers are expected to take advantage of this by purchasing a new vehicle. However, the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency (DVLA) has pre-emptively banned approximately 3,400 number plate combinations that could be deemed inappropriate or offensive.
March is also expected to be a milestone month for electric vehicle (EV) sales, as changes to road tax, employer National Insurance contributions, and end-of-quarter deals encourage more drivers to switch to an EV. This has sparked interest in new personalised number plates with electric-themed references. The Electric Car Scheme has highlighted some of the best options below:
Best EV-Themed ‘25 Number Plates
- PO25 WER (Power)
- BA25 TRY (Battery)
- RE25 NEW (Renewable)
- EN25 ERG (Energy)
- CH25 RGE (Charge)
- SO25 LAR (Solar)
- GR25 ENR (Greener)
- EV25 NOW (EVs Now)
- CL25 EAN (Clean)
- PL25 GIN (Plug-in)
Thom Groot, CEO and Co-Founder of The Electric Car Scheme, commented:
“This March is set to be a record month for the uptake of EVs, the combined effects of the new number plates, the incoming road tax changes and the upcoming hike in employer National Insurance contributions, means that demand has never been stronger for EVs. With all of these EVs hitting the roads, we fully expect to see these drivers getting creative with their number plates.
“While these personalised number plates don’t always make your car more valuable, it can help it stand out from the crowd. If you are interested in leasing a brand new electric car with a ’25 plate, you can save between 20 and 50% through salary sacrifice at The Electric Car Scheme.”
