At Helfman Ford, we're committed to providing our customers with accurate information about electric vehicles (EVs). Despite their growing popularity, there are still common myths surrounding Ford EV ownership that can deter potential buyers. Let's debunk some of these myths and explore the many benefits of choosing an EV.
Myth #1: EVs Have Limited Range
One of the most prevalent misconceptions about EVs is that they have limited range. However, advancements in battery technology have significantly increased the range of EVs. Models like the Ford Mustang Mach-E, with a range of up to 312 miles, and the Ford F-150 Lightning, with a range of up to 320 miles, prove otherwise.
Myth #2: EVs Are Expensive to Maintain
Contrary to popular belief, EVs are often cheaper to maintain than traditional gasoline-powered vehicles. With fewer moving parts and no oil changes to worry about, EVs require less frequent maintenance and have lower long-term servicing costs.
Myth #3: EVs Lack Power
If you think EVs don’t have the power to handle tough jobs, then the Ford F-150 Lightning is sure to change your tune. This Ford EV truck has duel electric motors that can put out a 580-horsepower equivalent and 775 lb-ft of torque, which allows for a towing capability of up 10,000 lbs.
Benefits of Choosing an EV
EVs produce zero emissions, reducing air pollution and combating climate change. They also offer lower operating costs, with electricity being cheaper than gasoline. Additionally, EVs provide a quieter and smoother driving experience, making them ideal for urban environments.
