SHOP NOWWhich Electric Vehicles Qualify For A Tax Credit?
EV Tax Credit Changes: What’s New?
The federal EV tax credit expired on September 30th, 2025.
EV Affordability: Savings, Costs, & Incentives
Shift Gears
The electric vehicle landscape is rapidly evolving, and affordability is no longer a barrier to entry. At Pittsville Ford, we understand that making the switch to electric can initially seem daunting. However, the tide is turning, and owning an EV is becoming a more realistic and highly appealing option for drivers across all financial backgrounds.
Charge Up for Savings
Going electric isn’t just about environmental responsibility; it’s also about making smart financial choices. While the initial price tag of an EV might seem higher compared to a traditional gasoline-powered vehicle, the long-term savings paint a considerably greener picture. One of the main advantages of EV affordability is the dramatic reduction in fuel costs. Say goodbye to gas station lines and hello to substantial savings on every trip. With a Ford EV, you’ll be harnessing the power of electricity, a much cheaper and more stable energy source compared to fluctuating gasoline prices. The exact amount you save depends on your driving habits and electricity rates. However, the economic benefits extend beyond just the power source. EVs require significantly less maintenance compared to their gasoline counterparts. Gone are the days of frequent oil changes, spark plug replacements, and exhaust system repairs. Electric motors have a less complex design with fewer parts, leading to a more reliable and cost-effective ownership experience. Our expert service department is still here for you, but you’ll likely find yourself needing us far less often for routine maintenance. Let’s not forget the environmental impact! By choosing an electric Ford, you’re not just saving money. You’re contributing to a cleaner, more sustainable planet!
Unlock the Power of Incentives
The United States government acknowledges the importance of transitioning towards electric vehicles and offers a substantial federal tax credit to incentivize ownership. This credit, currently valued at up to $7,500, significantly reduces the initial purchase price of a qualifying electric vehicle. This translates to real dollar-amount savings upfront, making EVs a more accessible option for a wider range of drivers. But the federal tax credit is just the tip of the iceberg. Several states, including Maryland, offer additional incentives on top of the federal credit, further sweetening the deal. These state incentives can take various forms, such as tax breaks, rebates, or even registration fee reductions specifically for electric vehicles. We understand navigating the intricacies of available tax credits can feel overwhelming. That’s why our knowledgeable team is here to help! We can guide MD customers through the specifics of the federal tax credit and any applicable Maryland EV tax credits. We’ll ensure you understand the eligibility requirements and complete all the necessary paperwork to maximize your financial benefits. By combining the federal and state tax credits with the long-term fuel and maintenance savings inherent in electric vehicles, the total cost of ownership for a Ford EV becomes extremely attainable. Reducing your dependence on gas stations, spending less on maintenance, and potentially receiving thousands of dollars in tax credits, all while contributing to a cleaner planet, makes EV affordability hard to pass on.
Drive Electric, Save Big
In conclusion, while the initial price tag of an EV might seem higher, the long-term economic benefits paint a much brighter picture and make EV affordability shine for many reasons. Reduced fuel costs, lower maintenance expenses, and generous government tax credits make Ford’s electric lineup a surprisingly affordable and future-proof option. Our team is passionate about helping you find the perfect Ford vehicle to suit your needs and budget. Visit us and explore the exciting world of electric driving! We are here to answer your questions, walk you through the available models, and help you unlock the true cost-saving potential of driving electric and hybrid vehicles.
Charging Your EV: Public & Home Charging Options
Plug In & Charge Up: Explore Ford EV Charging Options
If you’re considering getting a Ford EV, then you’ve probably weighed your EV charging options. Unlike a conventional gas or diesel vehicle, you have plenty of options when it comes to fueling up your electric vehicle. Stay tuned for more information regarding all the fully charged possibilities available. Whether you opt for a home charging station or you’re on the go, you have your pick of where you want to recharge. Visit Pittsville Ford to discover Salisbury, MD, EV charging stations and learn all about our Built Ford Tough® EVs!
EV Charging Types
While gas stations are pretty standard across the board, EV charging options can vary in type. Different chargers have a range of voltage needs, power outputs, and charge times. Let’s cruise through the three main categories of EV charging options!
Level 1 Charger
The first of the EV charging options includes Level 1 chargers. This involves charging your EV with a residential 120-volt AC outlet. It can take approximately 40-50 hours for your battery EV to go from empty to 80 percent charge with a Level 1 charger. For plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), it usually takes about 5-6 hours to charge up from 0 to 80 percent.
Level 2 Charger
Level 2 EV charging options are typically seen installed in homes, work buildings, or public spaces. They supply a higher charging rate with 208-240 Voltage AC, allowing your EV to charge to 80 percent in just 4-10 hours. If you charge your PHEV with a Level 2 charger, you’ll be good to go in just an hour or two.
Direct Current Fast Charging (DCFC)
If you’re on the go and need a quick pick-me-up, then Direct Current Fast Charging is the best of the EV charging options for you. These are the type of chargers you frequently see along major highways and in a variety of public places. Within 20 minutes to an hour, your EV battery will be charged to 80%, using 400-1000 Voltage DC. The typical power output of the DCFC chargers ranges from 50-350 kW. While it charges battery EVs rapidly, DCFC chargers do not work on most PHEVs. It accepts the following connector types: CCS Connectors, CHAdeMO connectors, and Tesla connectors. You can now reserve a free Fast Charging Adapter, if your vehicle is a model from 2021 to 2024 and you’re enrolled in the BlueOval Charge Network™. This adapter will allow you to charge your car at DC fast chargers that use the North American Charging Standard (NACS), including over 15,300 Tesla Superchargers in the United States and Canada. Reserve your adapter by June 30, 2024, to take advantage of this free offer.
Charge On the Go
If you have a Ford EV, you can locate charging stations nearby. The BlueOval Charge Network provides over a hundred thousand charging stations in North America, so you’re sure to find one to use as an EV charging option.
Home EV Charging
One of the best EV charging options is about as local as you can get. Having an EV home charging station is extremely convenient and makes your commute ultra-efficient, allowing you to charge your electric vehicle overnight or while you’re relaxing on home base. Opt for a Ford Charge Station Pro Level 2, one of our highly recommended EV charging options for the Ford F-150 Lightning. The Ford Charge Station Pro Level 2 home install charger comes equipped with up to 80 amps of on-demand power, Bluetooth®, and Wi-Fi capabilities, and it is compatible only with the Ford F-150 Lightning. Other options include the Ford For the Ford F-150 Lightning Standard-Range Battery, which takes 10 hours to charge from 15-100 percent, and the E-Transit can charge from 0 to 100 percent in 8 hours.

Today’s batteries are designed with incredible resilience, and you can expect yours to retain a significant portion of its original capacity even after years of faithful service. While EV range and battery degradation are inevitable, advancements in technology are minimizing its impact. Expect your Ford EV to serve you faithfully for years to come, with minimal battery capacity loss over time.

Pittsville Ford is here to guide you on your EV journey, ensuring your electric ride runs smoothly and efficiently for miles to come.

EV Service: Your Electrifying Experience

We use state-of-the-art diagnostic tools and genuine Ford parts to ensure your EV performs at its best.

Although Ford EV service may be less complex than regular gas vehicle maintenance, there are still important parts of the vehicle that require maintenance and care. It’s important to perform routine tire service and rotations, replace vehicle fluids and coolants, repair suspension systems, and routinely check your EV battery. Our factory-trained technicians know just how to keep your vehicle in check so that it is running smoothly. Are you due for a Ford EV service? Schedule an appointment online today!
Taking Care of Your EV: Steps for a Smooth Ride
Following these simple tips will help you get the most out of your Ford EV:
Read your owner’s manual: It’s your Ford EV’s bible, containing valuable information on maintenance schedules, charging tips, and best practices. Keep your manual nearby to use as a reference whenever you have an inquiry about your Ford EV service!
Find a charging routine: Whether you charge at home, work, or public stations, develop a charging routine that meets your needs and helps maintain battery health. Part of EV car maintenance is ensuring that you refrain from always fully charging your battery. Although 100 percent seems like the goal, you should actually only charge your EV to a level of 85 or 90 percent. That way, the battery won’t deplete or degrade as quickly over time.
Plan your trips: Utilize apps and tools to plan your journeys, consider charging station availability, and optimize your route for efficiency. Access Ford’s BlueOval™ Charge Network through the FordPass® App to find a range of EV chargers near you, hassle free. There are currently over 106,000 EV chargers in the BlueOval™ Charge Network, the largest public charging network in North America, so you are sure to find one nearby locally or on your next road trip!
Visit your Ford dealership regularly: Regular checkups and preventive maintenance are key to keeping your EV running smoothly and avoiding pricey repairs down the road. You can quickly schedule an appointment online at your earliest convenience to get your Ford EV service done in a timely manner today!
Avoid extreme temperatures: Part of maintaining your Ford EV service means mainly operating your vehicle in moderate temperatures. Usage during extreme weather conditions can eventually cause wear and tear on your battery, which we want to do our best to avoid.
