You might be able to save a lot when you switch to an EV.
Electric vehicles (EVs) generally cost less to operate than their gasoline powered counterpart. The bulk of the savings comes from reduced "fuel" cost, but EVs also require far less general maintenance than vehicles with internal combustion engines. No more oil changes... The chart below is an example of a fuel savings estimate based on a comparison between an electric and gas vehicles driving approximately 30 miles/day 5 days/week. Savings will vary based on local gas and electric prices. See manufacturer websites for additional details.

EV operation can be three to five times cheaper than gasoline and diesel powered cars, depending on your local gasoline and electric rates.
EVs Are Environmentally Friendly.
EVs have no tailpipe emissions. The power plant producing your electricity may produce emissions, but electricity from hydro, solar, nuclear or wind-powered plants is generally emission-free.
Never Go To The Gas Station Again.
Electric vehicles do not require gasoline and can be charged at home with a standard 120V outlet or a 240V level 2 charger can be installed for faster, more efficient charging.
EV Performance Benefits.
Electric motors provide quiet, smooth operation, stronger acceleration and require less maintenance than gasoline-powered internal combustion engines.
EV Driving Range & Recharge Time.
EV range is typically around 80 to over 330 miles on a full charge. The average American’s daily round-trip commute is less than 30 miles. Fully recharging the battery pack can take four to eight hours. A "fast charge" to 80% capacity can take 30 min.*
