Just too cheap not to. $11,475 total incentives, $150 a month for 36 months/10k miles a year, with just first payment due at signing. $27,135 unit.
Used a private offer and farm bureau rebate to get an additional $1k off. AND of course a $2,300 MD EV rebate is coming my way too.
So bottom line is about $87/month.
It's definitely a sporty little thing!!
And I just found out I guess I am eligible for $500 towards a Bosch L2 unit? Not that I need one, but another plus! Ebay, here I come.
One of these days I'll make it out to one of those.
One quick observation: the Spark EV has the "oh sh!t" handles in the front, but the Volt doesn't?? Why is that?
Also was surprised the Spark has heated seats. I kept wondering "Why the hell are the seats so damn hot?!" and chalked it up to the hot weather...then I finally noticed the heated seats were on!
Yeah, this is my first BEV experience....should be fun!
On my first commute to work, I started out with a full charge and 81 miles of estimated range. After my 8 mile drive, the new estimated range was 83 miles. Lol
Pretty sure I'll be able to get it up to 100+ miles of estimated range on a full charge soon...unless I start lead footing it, which is very tempting...
Spark EV would cover 99% percent of my driving. But then my volt covers 100%. My commute is completely electric and the vast majority of my travels are gas-free. Plus, I can't see having two vehicles for me.
Spark EV is just too small for my needs. Glad it works for you.
Found out one more tidbit I didn't know before purchasing: the brake lights will come on while in 'L' if it is decelerating fast enough.
Still haven't been able to test out the QC capability.
