Toyota Electric Vehicle Buying Guide
Understanding EVs
Do electric vehicles sound enticing to drive? They should. New Jersey motorists can electrify each mile they drive by buying an electric vehicle from Towne Toyota. Electric vehicles (EVs) can be cheaper and easier to maintain than gas-powered vehicles, and contribute fewer emissions to the atmosphere. Plus, there are tax incentives available and more charging stations added to the network all the time! Learn more about alternative fuel vehicles like hybrid, plug-in hybrid, and pure electric models and how they can make your commute and daily driving more efficient.
Electric
We want drivers to know which type of electric vehicle is right for them. Choose a Toyota hybrid if you're seeking superior fuel economy ratings compared to generic models with an internal combustion engine. Hybrids work best for driving in New York city or longer commutes.
Plug-In Hybrid
Choose a Plug-In Hybrid if you want to test the waters of driving an EV. PHEV models use electric power and gasoline, giving drivers a better feel for electric driving. They are incredibly efficient, earning high MPGe ratings and traveling around 40 miles on battery power. They are a flexible driving solution, helping you save money. Plus, it's quick and easy to recharge a Toyota Plug-In Hybrid.
Hybrid
If you're always driving around the city or taking short trips, an EV is perfect for you. You get instantaneous torque, expansive range, and an efficient driving experience on top of federal tax incentives and no tailpipe emissions. Pure electric vehicles are a perfect choice for several New Jersey drivers.
Charging Stations
While hybrids use regenerative braking and gasoline, plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) and fully electric cars need to be recharged. Dover drivers can turn to different charging solutions that are fast and affordable.
Range
How far they can EVs typically travel? This depends on whether you drive a mild-hybrid car, a plug-in hybrid, or a pure electric vehicle. Knowing the mileage differences between full and partial EVs helps decide which is best for you and your daily routine.
Hybrids
Toyota hybrid cars offer fuel economy ratings between 50 and 60 miles per gallon on highways between Hackettstown and Newark.
Plug-In Hybrids
A Toyota Plug-In Hybrid - which is labeled with the Prime moniker - can travel around 40 miles on battery power before switching over to gas with its plug-in hybrid powertrain. PHEVs have MPGe ratings, which stands for miles per gasoline equivalent, as they combine their electric range with fuel economy ratings to determine efficiency. Most Toyota PHEVs have high MPGe ratings north of 90 miles per gallon.
Pure Electric Vehicles
Pure electric vehicles rely solely on electric power. High battery capacities and electric powertrains help EVs travel well over 200 miles on a single charge. Most standard battery ranges are for 220 to 250 miles. Some electric vehicles can even travel 300 miles before recharging.
Why do Ledgewood drivers love electric vehicles? They are not only efficient and environmentally friendly, but they also feature enticing federal tax incentives. Fully electric vehicles are eligible for a federal tax credit up to $7,500. This makes EVs more affordable for your budget. Several Toyota Plug-In Hybrids are eligible for government incentives, too, ranging from credits of $2,500 to $7,500. Save up to $7,500 when you purchase a Toyota RAV4 Prime, Toyota Prius Prime, or another PHEV from our Ledgewood, NJ lot.
