Why Use Electric Vehicles

The Future of Transportation

Electric power is the fastest-growing segment of the automotive industry right now. You’ll find the most innovative, revolutionary vehicle technology being utilized in all-electric models. Even here in Texas, the charging infrastructure is expanding rapidly, making in-town and long-distance travel with an electric vehicle easier than ever.

As this technology becomes more commonplace, purchase and maintenance costs of electric vehicles will continue to drop as they’re starting to now. Already you can find great deals on clean-energy models like the Bolt EV and Bolt EUV here at Hanner Chevrolet GMC Trucks.

Better for Your Budget

Gas prices are constantly rising and dropping overnight here in Texas, and that can significantly impact your company’s monthly transportation costs. Electric energy costs are far less volatile than crude oil prices, so you don’t have to fret about paying at the pump.

You can save a lot of money on gas by having charging hookups installed on your business’ property. You could even invest in distributed energy resource technologies like solar energy to reduce your electric bill over time.

You can find many government subsidies and rebates on the state and federal levels, providing tax benefits for companies who invest in clean energy like electric cars. Plus, you’ll be compliant with environmental regulations and any restrictions imposed by the EPA in the future.

Good for Public Relations

It’s important that you always make a stellar first impression with potential clients, so make an impressive introduction before you even step out of your company vehicle. Driving an electric car shows that your business is forward-thinking, environmentally conscious, and not afraid to evolve. Plus, EVs don’t emit noxious fumes and run nearly silently, so you’ll have a more appealing image.
