Why Consider Eco-Friendly Ford Models?
Reduce Your Carbon Footprint
By now, many people are familiar with reducing their carbon footprint. Essentially, this refers to adopting lifestyle practices that reduce carbon emissions, which can include practices like carpooling or purchasing a vehicle that doesn’t have an internal combustion engine. An electric vehicle or a hybrid vehicle has vastly lower carbon emissions, which can help reduce the harmful greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change.
Save Money on Fuel
Fuel costs are skyrocketing, so purchasing an eco-friendly car can help reduce your fuel budget. Instead of fueling your vehicle with imported oil that can spike in price for months, you can fuel your vehicle with an electric battery right from the comfort of your own home or a fast-charging station.
Depending on your electric utility provider, charging your vehicle might be able to be done with wind or solar power, which can further enhance the eco-friendliness of your car.
Less Vehicle Maintenance
Traditional combustion engines need oil changes twice a year and tend to burn through brakes quickly. However, a hybrid or electric vehicle does not tend to require such constant maintenance. A fully electric vehicle does not need oil changes since it has an electric motor. Ultimately, an eco-friendly car can help spare you the cost and time of specific routine maintenance needs.
Potential Tax Credit
You can potentially get a tax credit on your annual return for the year you purchase an electric or hybrid vehicle. The amount of your tax credit will depend on factors such as your specific electric Ford model.
