Electric Vehicles—Are They What They’re Charged Up to Be?

If you’re thinking of driving a new vehicle, there’s no doubt you’ve heard the hype about electric cars and SUVs—and you’ve probably wondered whether or not they’re worth switching out your traditional gas-powered ride for one. After all, with zero tailpipe emissions and instant torque, the deal already sounds good—stick with us today as we further explore the benefits of cruising with a Ford electric vehicle. Also, visit us today at Livermore Ford near Fremont, CA, and test drive the EVs that stand out to you.

Cut Costs and “Power Up” the Savings

The instant you ride with a Ford EV car, truck, or SUV, you’ll almost immediately feel the savings when you bypass the pump. That’s right, immediately, you can stop paying around $60 per fill-up any time you notice your fuel levels running low—and you won’t even need to make a special trip to the gas station when you remember you need to top off late at night—instead, plug your car in at home before bed and you’ll wake up to a fully charged EV. No need to worry if you’re on the go, as DC Fast Charging is affordable and usually finished in roughly 30 minutes, which lets you get some shopping done, stream an episode of your favorite show, or sit back and count the savings.

Along with saying goodbye to fuel, you’ll also no longer need oil changes. Think about how much you’ll save without needing to schedule this critical service a couple times a year—not to mention the time you’ll save as well since you won’t need to drive to the service center and wait 30 minutes for our technician to change out this fluid.

Electrified Efficiency—No Shortage of Exhilaration

Who says sustainable drives need to be boring rides? When you cruise with a Ford EV like the Mustang Mach-E, you’ll cruise with instant torque, which means you’ll usually feel an immediate blast off the instant your foot taps the accelerator. For city cruising, this means you’ll easily make most yellow lights or rush to a highway pace with ease. Plus, with a 0-60 mph in as little as 3.5 seconds for the GT trim, athletic excitement can be a natural part of the experience.
