Think you can’t afford an Electric Vehicle (EV)? Think again! Learn about the many financial assistance programs available for purchasing an EV. This webinar is available in English and Spanish.

Save money. Say goodbye to oil changes. EVs have lower maintenance and fueling costs over the vehicle's lifetime. Take advantage of federal and local tax credits, rebates and incentives to lower the sticker price.

Enjoy the ride. Faster acceleration and a quieter driving experience can add a boost to your commute, school drop-off and errands.

Save Time. With an EV you'll never need to visit a gas station again. Charge your EV at home, work or a local shopping center. Drive in the carpool lanes with a Clean Air Vehicle decal and spend less time in traffic.

Right style, right size. EVs come in many styles and sizes, ranging from sedans to SUVs. There's an EV that caters to every need – large trunks, car seats, high clearance, tight spaces... you name it.
