Why Nissan EVs Should Be Your Top Choice for Electric Vehicles

Every major automaker is pouring money into electric vehicle (EV) efforts. 

The push for environmentally safer vehicles will yield over a hundred different models of EVs. 

Additionally, fuel vehicles will be phased out of automakers’ production lines within the coming decades. Whether you are team EV or a skeptic, the reality is that EVs will become the norm. Electrified automobiles will soon become the only choice for consumers looking to buy new cars. 

However, we here at Neil Huffman Nissan in Frankfort are most excited for Nissan’s rollout of electric vehicles. Not only is this automaker known for quality vehicles in general, but they have a huge head start in EV production because of their past EV innovations. 

Nissan Was an Early Adopter of EVs

This automaker has plenty of experience in creating and maintaining EVs. In fact, the Nissan Leaf debuted over a decade ago, in 2010. 

You can be assured, then, that Nissan knows what it is doing with EV manufacturing than perhaps any of its competitors. 

With plenty of Nissan drivers already in EVs, Nissan is interested in growing that number. Just one perk is the public charging station offers that Nissan provides new EV drivers. 

Benefits of Driving an Electric Nissan Vehicle

If you watched the 2023 Super Bowl, you saw plenty of electric vehicle ads that stressed these vehicles’ ability to reach long distances, and the appeal of charging. 

However, there are many more benefits to consider as well, which we’ll detail below. 

Electric motors can achieve instant torque at 0 rpm, allowing for faster takeoffs. 

You can also save big on an electric vehicle if you qualify for tax credits, which can help you save up to $7,500*. 

Some states allow EVs access to high-occupancy vehicle lanes, which can save you time on your commutes. 

If you want a home charger, you may be eligible for rebates for a charger. 

Batteries are also designed for longevity, with most manufacturers offering an 8-year, or 100,000-mile, warranty for batteries. 

The big draw for many is that low emissions is better for the environment. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the average passenger fuel vehicle emits 4.6 metric tons of carbon dioxide every year. 

This is significant, because it contributes to “the greenhouse effect”, where carbon dioxide lingers in the earth’s atmosphere, letting heat in from without, but not letting heat outside of the earth’s atmosphere. So, the atmospheric layer of carbon dioxide that fuel vehicles contribute to functions much like greenhouse glass that traps heat. 

You’ll save big on oil and fluid changes, as electric vehicles require less moving parts. 

Oh, and you save plenty of money that would otherwise be going to gas. 

Charging Stations Will Be the Next Gas Stations

For many people curious about EVs, the worry is that charging an EV may be a challenge. 

However, there is no need to worry, as electric charging stations are becoming more and more common. In fact there are already close to 50,000 electric vehicle charging stations across the U.S.A. 

If you can afford it, you can get an individual charging station, which 130,000 people have already invested in. 

Will Shell, BP, Chevron, et al be folding now that charging stations are expanding nationwide, while fuel cars are slowly but surely being phased out of the marketplace? 

If your intuition is yes, consider that the manufacturers of fuel vehicles are now making electric vehicles. You can be certain that those gas station chains will be converting to electric charging stations in the future. 

So, there will be more than enough charging stations in the country to get you through your EV road trips in the coming years.
