You can afford an EV!
Electric vehicles are expensive. EVs are only for the rich. I’d like one but they are out of my price range.
We’ve heard these sentiments before and while it may have been true a few years ago, this is no longer valid. New electric vehicles (EVs) are now available at price points that rival comparably-sized gas cars. Importantly, once low maintenance costs are considered, EVs can offer consumers a lower total-cost-of-ownership.
It gets better. The EV competitive landscape is growing dramatically and battery technology continually improves leading to lower costs, faster charging, and longer driving ranges. These factors are resulting in more vehicle choices and increased affordability.
Best-kept 'secret' - pre-owned EVs
If you're looking for even more affordability, check out pre-owned EVs.
Pre-owned EVs are now flooding the market and many offer consumers reliable and affordable options. Many still come with warranties and can provide owners peace of mind. The Tesla market is especially interesting, given the pace of product iteration that is seen with this company and the desire of loyal customers to have the latest and greatest. The same can be said for other automakers although the pace of iteration pales to the current EV manufacturing leader.
Where to buy?
