Consumer Reports Confirms Electric Cars Really Are Cheaper!

Consumer Reports 12-10-20.jpg

BIG NEWS! A new study by Consumer Reports confirms that electric vehicles SAVE MONEY compared to the best-selling and most "efficient" gas-guzzling counterparts in their class.

Consumer Reports surveyed 10,000 electric vehicle (EV) drivers and analyzed depreciation, financing, sale prices and fuel costs. The study revealed that EV owners can save between $6K-$10K in lifetime costs compared to a gas-powered car. This is because EV drivers typically spend 60% less to power their vehicles and invest half as much on repair and maintenance, among other factors.
