How can I buy an EV?

Compare Electric Car Dealers

Buying a used car

Buying a used car can be a great way to save money, especially when done through a trusted dealer with options for maintenance, warranty, and a worry free experience. Used cars are generally less expensive than new ones, allowing you to save money on the purchase price. Used cars have already experienced significant depreciation, so you won't face the same rapid value loss that new cars typically experience in their early years. You have a larger pool of options when buying used, including discontinued models or vehicles with specific features that may no longer be available in new cars. Finally, insuring a used car is typically cheaper than insuring a new car.
