Key insights on switching to electric
Range
Before purchasing an EV, it’s important to evaluate the prospective route. For farther ranges, ensure that charging opportunities are available to keep your vehicles running with energy to spare.
Maintenance Costs
Contrary to popular belief, EVs typically require less routine and preventative maintenance than traditional internal combustion engine vehicles. According to Ford, E-Transits need up to 40% fewer scheduled maintenance services to stay running smoothly.
Emissions
Instill a leading sustainability promise for your business with low or zero-emission vehicles, and become a leader in eco-friendly transit.
EV Infrastructure
Do you have the proper infrastructure to support electric vehicles in your fleet? It’s important to have a plan for how your infrastructure will accommodate EVs before purchasing.
Tech Enablement
When you buy a Ford E-Transit from Model 1, ask about adding a three-year subscription to Ford’s Telematics system for valuable data about your EV.
Grant Services
