Thanks to New Technology, All Electric is the Way Forward

The advancements in EV technology available now, including a wide variety of incentives available, when you’re searching for electric vehicles they have become a viable option for drivers. As well as a preferable choice. Look at what Mercedes-Benz is doing for EV Technology today.

From increased fuel efficiency to reduced emissions and incentives as well as tax advantages, electric vehicles are undoubtedly are an increasingly attractive choice for more business owners. 

With such a bright future on the horizon for electric vehicles, now is the perfect time to make the switch and experience all that EVs have to offer. Here are the top reasons you should consider adding electric vehicles to your fleet.

Are There State Policies That Promote Having Electric Vehicles In My Fleet?

In many states, there are policies that promote both hybrid and electric vehicles and the supporting infrastructure surrounding the community. 

In Colorado, the Energy Office even updates a website that shares their goal of having just under a million zero emission vehicles on the roads in Colorado by 2030. A lofty goal for sure, but the state plans on supporting our choice as Coloradans to drive EV. 

If you like reading the signed laws yourself, here is the 2019 signed law for alternative fueled vehicles to have an EV Tax Credit, as per Colorado Law.

Are There A Lot of EV Charging Stations in Littleton Colorado? 

EV will have a strong support going forward from the local government. Colorado has incentives for charging stations to be built all over the state. In future blogs, we plan to map out the current lay of charging stations so you can feel comfortable buying electric. 

In short the infrastructure is there, and more on the way!

You can find a current list of charging stations in your Mercedes-Me App, or if you’re looking, take a look online at the Alternative Fuels Data Center from the Federal Government, here is a search into Littleton. And honestly, take a look around on both platforms, if you’re asking yourself “When will Electric Vehicle (EV) Charging stations be everywhere?” you need to play around and see how many charging stations there truly are. 

If you are looking at installing a level 2 charging station in your home, you even can apply for a rebate from the Colorado Empire Electric Association where you can install your own hub, and change the way you fuel your drive. This rebate you could qualify for up to 50% of the charge of the equipment in your home, making the initial costs a little easier to swallow.

Is It The Right Time To Buy Electric?

That’s truly up to you and your situation. So in short, it’s up to you!

In doing research, We’ve found that the support coming out of the Federal government for electric vehicles, and that it’s only building through time is one way to see that it’s a good time to start. 

Locally, in Colorado, there is a hub of many charging stations available to keep you going, and remember to think about it in what’s my MPGe not range. $5 of a charge, at the right charging station will get you almost anywhere you need to be. 

In your own home, you can find many different businesses working with you and the rebates available for the charging stations to have one of your very own. 

In our opinion, why not add an electric vehicle to your home or your fleet, and take advantage of the good timing with money back, tax write offs, and the luxury that’s coming out of Mercedes-Benz with their newest EQS SUV, you’ll be happy you made the choice to go all electric.
