EV is EconomicalÂ
EVs are becoming increasingly easy to afford. Between improved charging options and reduced purchase prices, these vehicles are much less expensive to own and operate than ever before. There is also the added benefit of kickbacks through taxes and rebates for helping to save the environment with the use of electric cars. This is not available in every state, but some locations will offer you significant financial benefits for picking electric vehicles for fleet use.

Saving Money on Gas
Fuel continues to cost more money than anyone wants to spend. Fleets have to balance fuel costs against all of their other expenditures every year to help determine which vehicles to invest in. As gas prices go up, electric vehicles are more and more beneficial for fleet management. Keeping costs for fuel under control can help fleet businesses save lots of money each year. As one of the leading providers for fleets and commercial vehicles, Ford Motors believes EVs are a cost effective solution.

Increased Comfort and Function
EV options used to be limited and the cars that were sold in this market were not very practical. You would have to settle for reduced horsepower, lack of battery charge that limited the distance that the car could travel, and uncomfortable and low-quality interiors. This is not the case anymore — you can get a great and durable vehicle that performs perfectly when you shop the EV market. Ford is debuting two of their most popular fleet vehicles as EVs this upcoming year to showcase how functionality and style can go hand-in-hand with electric.

Socially Conscious
Branding matters for all kinds of businesses, including fleet management companies. Being ranked among the socially conscious businesses in your area can be a very effective way to make sure that your business stands out from the rest of your competitors in the market. Socially conscious behavior is considered a must in almost every industry these days. Leasing commercial EVs for your fleet like Ford is offering can be just the thing to increase client engagement with your brand.
