Electric vehicles (EVs) are rapidly growing in popularity, and for good reason. At Healey Brothers Ford in Poughkeepsie, NY, we believe EVs represent the future of automotive transportation. Here's why you should consider making the switch to an electric vehicle.
Debunking Common EV Myths and Concerns
There are many misconceptions about electric vehicles that cause hesitation among car buyers. One common myth is that EVs have limited driving range. However, the latest EVs like the Ford Mustang Mach-E have an EPA-estimated range of up to 305 miles, allowing you to take road trips with confidence. Residents of Hyde Park can easily make it to nearby cities and back on a single charge.
Another concern is that charging an EV takes too long. While charging times are longer than filling up at a gas station, the latest fast charging technology allows you to charge from 10% to 80% in just 45 minutes. Plus, you can conveniently charge your EV overnight at home in Beacon so it's ready to go in the morning.
The Benefits of Driving Electric
EVs offer many advantages over traditional gas-powered vehicles. Environmentally conscious drivers in Fishkill will appreciate that EVs produce zero direct emissions, reducing your carbon footprint. Charging an EV is also much cheaper than filling up at the gas pump, allowing you to save money in the long run.
In addition to being eco-friendly and cost-effective, electric vehicles deliver instant torque for an exhilarating driving experience. When you test drive an EV at our Poughkeepsie dealership, you'll be amazed by the smooth, quiet, and responsive performance.
Ford's Impressive EV Lineup
Ford offers an exciting lineup of capable and innovative electric vehicles. The Ford F-150 Lightning brings the power and utility of America's favorite truck into an all-electric package - perfect for drivers in Wappingers Falls who need to haul and tow.
For an electric SUV that doesn't compromise on space or features, look no further than the Ford Mustang Mach-E. With plenty of passenger and cargo room, standard all-wheel drive, and the latest tech like Ford Co-Pilot360, the Mach-E is a smart choice for families in the Poughkeepsie area.

We understand that convenient charging is a top priority for EV drivers. That's why Healey Brothers Ford is proud to offer EV charging stations at our Poughkeepsie dealership location at 2250 South Road.
