EV Costs Savings
EV Costs and Savings: Beyond the Sticker Price
While the initial sticker price of an electric vehicle might seem higher compared to a traditional gasoline-powered car, the long-term savings of EV affordability paint a very different picture. Here's why.
  • Fuel Efficiency Champion: This is a big one for EV affordability! Gas prices are constantly fluctuating, and relying on them can strain your budget. With an efficient Ford EV, you'll be saying goodbye to gas station dependency. Instead, you'll be plugging into significantly cheaper electricity, often at off-peak hours when rates are lower. Consider your daily commute - the money saved on gas each week quickly adds up. Imagine the potential savings over the entire lifespan of your vehicle!
  • Reduced Maintenance Costs: Electric vehicles have fewer moving parts than typical gasoline engines. Fewer parts equals less wear and tear, resulting in fewer trips to the mechanic and lower maintenance costs. Say goodbye to oil changes, spark plug replacements, and other routine gasoline car maintenance! EVs typically require scheduled maintenance focused on things like tire rotations and cabin air filters, keeping your wallet happy.
  • Regenerative Braking: Many Ford EVs feature regenerative braking technology. This innovative system captures the energy that is lost during braking and feeds it back into the battery, extending your driving range and reducing overall energy consumption. As an added bonus, regenerative braking takes far less of a toll on your brake pads, meaning they won't need replacing as often. It's a win-win for efficiency and your wallet!
  • State and Local Incentives: Many states and municipalities offer additional incentives for purchasing electric vehicles, further reducing the overall cost of ownership. It's worth noting that these programs can provide significant financial benefits for going electric!
Ford EV Tax Credit
Ford EV Tax Credit
Adding another layer of EV affordability to your purchase from Crouse Ford is the generous federal tax credit available for qualifying electric vehicles. This credit can significantly reduce your upfront costs, making the transition to electric driving more accessible than ever. At Crouse Ford, our knowledgeable sales team can guide you through the credit application process, ensuring you take full advantage of this government incentive. The MD EV tax credit is also a great incentive for EV affordability. Maryland offers financial incentives for going electric, including the Excise Tax Credit, which allows you to get up to $3,000 back on purchasing a new qualifying electric vehicle or fuel cell electric vehicle. This one-time credit reduces the overall cost of your new ride. Maryland will cover up to 50 percent of the cost of installing a charging station at your home or business. This incentive can greatly lower the upfront cost of setting up your own home charging infrastructure, making owning an EV even more convenient and affordable.
