ARE EVs A GOOD BUSINESS DECISION?
Wondering if Electric Vehicles and Hybrids could be a part of your business future?
So much information. So many options. So much uncertainty.
We want you to be able to filter through the noise, and provide you with the solid information so you can make an informed decision of your business.
See if you answer "yes" to any of these questions:
-
Do I have vehicles in my fleet that travel less than 400kms per day?
-
Do I have vehicles that idle for long periods of time?
-
Are my fuel and vehicle maintenance costs rising?
-
Do I want a "GPS" type system for my fleet operational control without the cost?
-
Do I care about being "Green"?
If you answered yes to one or more of these questions, than you owe it to yourself to ask - Should I be considering EVs for my business?

The Facts
1
The Cost
The cost of an F-150 FordPro Lightning Fleet Spec truck is the same or less than a Fleet Spec I.C.E. truck - yes, really! Mach-E Mustangs now sell for below $60,000
2
Charging
You can fully charge an F-150 Lightning Extended Length Battery in less than 40 minutes and a Mach-E in less than 25 minutes on the new high output Level 3 chargers. And 90% of all vehicle charging is done at "home" or place of business on a level 2 charger hooked up to a simple 220V power supply.

The Future
EV and PHEVs made up for 1 in 10 vehicles sold in Canada in 2024. Expected to be 1 in 4 by 2030. The EV charging network will grow exponentially over the next 2 years, as it is now!
Let's forget the "they cost too much", the "Green" part, the "charging anxiety", the "cost of battery replacement", and all the other pro-EV and con-EV information out there. Here's the reality...
There is a very strong financial business case to consider Electric Vehicles or Hybrids for your fleet without sacrificing any performance benefits of your existing fleet vehicles.
