EV Financing & Incentives near Santa Cruz


Financing your vehicle is easy with the help of our finance department.

No matter if you’re considering buying or leasing your EV, our finance specialists will walk you through your options clearly and honestly. Buying gives you full ownership and the freedom to drive without mileage restrictions or modify your vehicle as you wish. Leasing, on the other hand, often provides lower monthly payments and lets you enjoy the latest models every few years—all with the reassurance of manufacturer warranty coverage.

Are you looking to trade in your current vehicle? We make the process seamless. Use our online appraisal tool for a quick estimate, then bring your vehicle in for an official offer from our appraisal team. You can apply that value toward your next electric Ford—often reducing your monthly payment.
