Purchasing an electric vehicle (EV) involves careful consideration, but significant savings can be realized compared to gas-powered vehicles. Maintenance and fuel costs are considerably lower, and the used EV market offers additional savings. Government rebate programs, such as Oregon Clean Vehicle Rebates, provide incentives for leasing or buying qualifying EVs. With over 114 makes and models available, including sedans, SUVs, and pickup trucks, there are options for most buyers.
