What are Honda's EV Options?

Honda offers hybrid versions of some of their most beloved models, that help customers enjoy classic Honda vehicles while also enjoying greater fuel efficiency! For example, there's the Accord Hybrid, as well as the CR-V hybrid. However, Honda is also in the process of expanding their electric offerings. One example of this is the 2024 Honda Prologue, an all-electric SUV that gets its power from a rechargeable battery pack. In addition to its innovative hybrid powertrain, the Prologue offers drivers and passengers a spacious and comfortable cabin. It also features a sporty exterior design, in keeping with the overall look and feel of the other Honda models you know and love. Notably, the Prologue can add up to 65 miles of driving range in just 10 minutes of charging time!

How Can I Save Money with an EV?

One of the main reasons that customers may choose to drive an electric vehicle is the great savings they can enjoy! Electric vehicles utilize battery power instead of gas, and charging your vehicle with an electric charger is anywhere from three to five times less expensive than pumping the equivalent amount of gasoline. Plus, electric prices are much more stable than gas prices, so while you may notice slight differences in price, it's nothing compared to the larger fluctuations you may have experienced at the gas pump! Many home charging stations even have an app you can download in order to find the best times of day to charge based on cost!

Are There Tax Deductions for EV Owners?

If you're unsure about the up-front costs of EV ownership, there may be a solution for you! There are multiple different tax incentives available for drivers nationwide. These federal and state incentives help you offset the cost of your purchase, making EVs more accessible to a wider range of drivers. You can speak with us here at Pearson Honda to learn more about the savings opportunities that might be available for you here in Virginia. We'll be happy to walk you through the various tax benefits, as well as our other financing options!

Can I Save Money on Maintenance With an EV?

In addition to the savings we've already mentioned, there's another savings opportunity we want to highlight for those considering an electric vehicle! As you know, electric vehicles do not use gas, and do not have typical gas-powered engines. This means that they do not require many of the same maintenance services that you might be used to. You can skip worrying about oil changes, spark plug replacements, engine repair, and many other services! This means you can save money on your maintenance in the long run when you switch to an EV!
