Benefits of EVs

Fuel/Cost Savings: Because EVs use electricity for all or part of their power, they are cheaper to run. With a pure battery EV, you can save up to 75 percent per year on fuel versus a gas-powered car.
Performance & Maintenance: Battery electric vehicles also benefit from not having a transmission or combustion engine, eliminating oil changes, fuel filters, emissions testing and other costly maintenance.
Better for the Environment: About one-third of the nation’s greenhouse gas emissions come from transportation — and 60 percent of that is from personal vehicle use. EVs significantly reduce carbon emissions.
Tax Rebate: The IRS allows a tax credit (of between $2,500 and $7,500) for qualified battery-electric vehicles, depending on the vehicle type.
