Electric Cars Pros and Cons

In Tulare County drivers need to be aware of the coming changes to the automobile industry and take consideration the many ne models coming such as the new Ford Mustang Mach E.

The average person has not driven a fully-electric vehicle in Tulare County and with the introduction of so many of these new models drivers should know what to expect.

Not having gasoline as fuel means that these cars run off of the electricity stored in batteries. With a single charge you could expect to get around 200-300 miles of range depending on your vehicle’s battery.

Charging electric vehicles is the difficult part. To get the most range out of your electric vehicle’s battery a full charge could take a few hours, also depending upon the size of your battery.

One big pro that comes with owning an all-electric vehicle is a government rebate of a few thousand dollars (depending on the cost of your vehicle) and also HOV lane access. The Clean Air Vehicle (CAV) sticker you might have noticed on current all-electric cars and this comes as a huge advantage for commuters getting access to the carpool lane.

So while fueling your electric vehicle can be time consuming compared to filling the tank of your typical combustion vehicle, you are more than likely saving a fair amount of money on transportation costs. The average sedan may average 20mpg in the city and 30mpg on the highway and if you are commuting consistently you may have to fill your tank multiple times in one week.
