Benefits of Choosing an All-Electric Vehicle in Shawnee, OK

The popularity of hybrid and all-electric vehicles is on the rise, and it's no wonder. Hybrid and electric vehicles offer a variety of benefits that are worth considering when you're shopping for a new vehicle. More hybrid and electric models are being released by various manufacturers, and Chevrolet now offers their very own all-electric vehicle: the Bolt EV. This innovative new vehicle offers up to an EPA-estimated 259 miles of range on just one charge. And here at Joe Cooper Chevrolet Cadillac, we couldn't be more excited about adding new members of the Chevrolet lineup, including the 2022 Bolt EUV, coming soon as well. Have you been wondering about the benefits of choosing an electric vehicle? Find out below:

Benefits of Choosing Electric

Eco-friendly

A great reason to buy or lease a hybrid is to make less of an impact on the environment. The Bolt EV boasts a long range, meaning you could go a day (or two) without needing to charge. Behind the wheel of the Bolt EV, you have the power you need, minus the eco footprint.

Wallet-pleaser

Wouldn't it be great if you didn't have to stop at the gas station for fuel — ever? Depending on your current vehicle and commute, you probably spend more time (and money) at the gas station than you think. With the Chevrolet Bolt EV, you would only need to worry about charging, and it could help you save as much as $5,000 in fuel costs over five years.² And with the growing number of public charging stations, that cost could be considerably lessened. Plus, did you know that all-electric vehicles don't need the typical engine upkeep like oil changes, transmission fluid flushes and more? That's more money in your pocket every year!

Tax Incentives

Upfront costs can also be diminished with federal and state tax incentives. Depending on where you live, you might be able to save thousands on your next all-electric vehicle. The U.S Department of Energy is committed to building and keeping a market for electric vehicles by supplying incentives, rebates and credits for those who have bought a qualifying vehicle. Wondering what you might qualify for? Simply visit the Alternative Fuels Data Center site and select your state.

Warranty

Typically, the warranty that comes with many all-electric models is better than that of the gas-powered counterparts. Yes, you read that right. For example, the Bolt EV comes with a 8-Year/100,000-Mile Battery Limited Warranty, which enables you to save on service for many years to come after your purchase.³ Plus, many all-electric warranties are transferable from owner to owner, so if you see a used all-electric in our inventory, there's a chance you could take advantage of its warranty.

All-Electric Bolt EUV and the Redesigned Bolt EV

We have a lot to look forward to in 2022. Chevrolet just released the redesign of the 2022 Bolt EV and unveiled the all-new, all-electric 2022 Bolt EUV! It comes with many new features like the available Super Cruise function, a driver-assistive feature that enables you to do hands-free driving, or the thrilling sport mode. Whatever you're looking for in an electric vehicle, both of these new models will offer unequaled efficiency.⁴
