With extremely volatile gas prices that show no signs of decreasing significantly and the ever-present concern for the environment, electric (EV) and hybrid vehicles are becoming more popular, with more models being offered every year. This includes the new Mazda MX-30 EV, now a new Mazda at our Mazda dealership inventory in Oregon. So, what’s the deal with hybrid and electric vehicles anyway?
Hybrid vehicles have an innovative motor that uses both gasoline and electric as sources for power. The benefit: much better gas milage than the standard gas-powered vehicle plus much lower emissions, thus, it is better for the environment. As for electric vehicles, you can bypass the gas station completely with them, and they have no emissions at all. Plus, when you purchase a hybrid or electric vehicle, you may also save money through government tax incentives for purchasing qualifying environmentally friendly vehicles, so it’s a win-win all the way around. Purchasing hybrid and electric vehicles is definitely a good move.
Introducing Mazda’s first electric car, the Mazda MX-30. It is an electric car that was specifically designed to meet the needs of the U.S. commuter, and when connected to a Level 3 DC Fast Charger, can go from a 20% charge to an 80% charge in just over thirty minutes. The Mazda MX-30 EV also comes with a Level 1 120V charging cable that allows you to charge your new Mazda at any household outlet. The Mazda MX-30 is worth looking into and taking for a test drive.
Stay tuned: Mazda is clearly on the hybrid/EV vehicle bandwagon, with the design and production of other hybrid and electric vehicles underway. They will be announcing information about upcoming hybrid/EV Mazda vehicles very soon!
