Did you know?

• EV oper­a­tion can be three to five times cheap­er than gaso­line and diesel-pow­ered cars.
• EVs are envi­ron­men­tal­ly friend­ly with no tailpipe emis­sions.
• EVs out­per­form most gaso­line-pow­ered inter­nal com­bus­tion engines with a qui­et, smooth oper­a­tion, stronger accel­er­a­tion, and require less main­te­nance.
• EV dri­ve range is typ­i­cal­ly around 80 to over 330 miles on a full charge. Since the aver­age American’s dai­ly round-trip com­mute is less than 30 miles, you can con­ve­nient­ly recharge at home in four to eight hours each night.
