I don't have experience of fully electric, but do with a hybrid. Sort of...so can at least comment on the personal mileage aspect for those interested.
I pay for personal mileage at x amount per mile and pay our company for this each month. I had wondered if this would change when I swapped out to a new petrol hybrid assuming that I would not have to pay the x amount of pence per mile as I have been doing with previous diesel cars. This is because I can do my commute on all electric (if I charge it of course).
Turns out that as a hybrid it is classed as a petrol car and no allowance is made for it also being electric too. Same would be the case with a diesel hybrid too (are there any?).
So if I pay for my electricity to charge the car (which I do) and drive to work and back all on electric I still have to pay the same 18p per mile as if it was a sub-2.0 litre petrol (dropping next month a little I think).
The personal tax on my P11D is so much less than a diesel, so it's swings and roundabouts, and of course it's up to me whether I charge it or not. That's my personal choice.
