Why Electric Vehicles?
Quiet convenience that is virtually pollution-free can highlight your trips if you own an electric vehicle (EV). Because you power up by plugging into a charger at home or a mall parking lot, you never have to line up at a gas station or worry about the constant rise of fuel prices.
Your energy costs go down, especially if you charge up when the costs of electricity are lower, which for customers of LADWP is from 8 PM to 9:59 AM on weekdays and all day Saturday and Sunday. As a bonus, the costs for maintenance also go down because EVs have fewer moving parts and fewer fluids when compared to more complex conventional vehicles. You never have to worry about oil changes, coolants, fuel filters, or spark plugs.
Recognizing these advantages, Volvo plans to have fully electric cars comprise 50 percent of its global sales volume by 2025 and go pure electric by 2030. But you don’t have to wait that long to electrify your commute. Galpin Volvo in Van Nuys offers the following EV options you can buy or lease today.
