Vive la France! Podium finishes all round for the best Motability vehicles
We’ve bid bon voyage to the 2024 Paris Olympics, as the competition goes into its next four-year hibernation, before resurfacing in sunny Los Angeles in 2028. Are you already missing having an eclectic mix of sports on your TV ready to analyse when you get home? Well, the party’s only getting started! On 28 August, we say a hearty ‘bonjour’ to the 2024 Paralympics and the next wave of sporting champions taking to the arena.
So, what better time to celebrate inclusivity and accessibility with the Motability Scheme? The motoring scheme has been running for over 40 years and supplied around three million vehicles – endeavouring to provide a range of vehicles to suit the needs of those who qualify for the scheme. As we quickly refresh our knowledge on the rules of fencing, judo and taekwondo, let’s also take a moment to highlight some of the best vehicles on the Motability Scheme.
Renault Clio
Always able to sweep aside the competition and emerge on top as one of the best-loved models out there, the Renault Clio is a classic model that continues to be a top-seller due to its consistent evolution in looks, performance and features. You’ll always drive away feeling secure and confident in the Clio, with high-performing LED headlights and useful driving assistance features, including cruise control and autonomous emergency braking coming as standard across all trim levels.
And for the new higher-spec models, the Clio’s interior space boasts a range of soft-touch plastics and an exceptionally modern cabin space. Enjoy the highly immersive 9.3-inch touchscreen that compiles all on-the-go connectivity and entertainment in an easily accessible instrument for driver’s ease. With exceptional hybrid technology on board in the E-Tech hybrid model, your drive won’t only be easy, but smooth and more eco-friendly too. It’s perfect for that inner-city driving if you’re planning a road trip to where all the Paralympic action is happening!
And it gets better! The Motability Scheme at Budgen offers the E-Tech hybrid model in Evolution trim with nil advance payment. Have your eye on a higher spec? Pay a £245 advance payment and upgrade to the Techno trim or £595 to secure the top-spec esprit Alpine model. Each comes with more interior features, including a larger touchscreen instrument and digital driver’s display to ensure driving is a breeze for everyone!
Dacia Jogger
Ample space, incredible interior comfort, a turbocharged engine with a hybrid option and a phenomenal seven-seat capacity – the Dacia Jogger would certainly score highly across a board of judges! Rocking and rolling around as a driver and passenger are a thing of the past in the Jogger, with its perfectly crafted suspension, giving it exceptional handling capabilities and setting up for a fantastically smooth journey.
Turning your Paralympics excursion into an extended break in Paris? Then the Dacia Jogger is ready and waiting to whisk you and all your luggage and sporting equipment away in its brilliantly versatile boot space. With 213 litres available with all seven seats in use, 712 litres with five seats and an incredible 1,807 litres with all rear seats folded down, the Jogger is more than up to the challenge. And power your way to victory with the choice of the Jogger’s 1.0-litre turbocharged petrol engine or 1.6-litre engine with hybrid technology, you can choose the driving style that best meets your needs.
From £395 advance payment on the Motability Scheme, you can secure the basic Essential model with a manual gearbox, emergency braking, air conditioning and rear parking sensors. And for £695 advance payment, you can get your hands on the mid-spec Expression model with the hybrid engine and automatic gearbox.
Citroën Berlingo
If a vehicle with more van-like features scoops the top prize for you, then look no further than the Citroën Berlingo. Vast interior space with easy access, the Berlingo is renowned for its incredible practicality – and its latest version doesn’t falter on consistent high quality.
The Berlingo caters to exactly what you require with its two available lengths in M and XL, five- or seven-seat layouts and convenient handy sliding doors which open up to a magnificent amount of space for any belongings or equipment that you need – especially all your knick-knacks and flags ready to cheer on the likes of Hannah Cockcroft, Jonnie Peacock and Sarah Storey, plus many more!
