Savings and incentives
You can power an EV for the equivalent of about $1 per gallon of gasoline, which can make a big difference for your budget. In many cases, electric vehicles cost less to maintain than gas-fueled cars because they have fewer moving parts. You can wave goodbye to oil changes and the gas station.
