Why choose a hybrid or electric powertrain?

The following are some of the reasons to choose an electric or hybrid vehicle, including (but not limited to):
- Powerful performance, with improved torque
- More fuel efficient, without adjusting your driving style
- No more maintenance than found on gas-powered vehicles
- Plug-in hybrid vehicles offer greater range on a single tank
- Reduced CO2 emissions and a reduced carbon footprint
- Electric vehicle batteries can be recycled
- Compliant with Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
- All vehicles have been stress-tested for life in Canada (including the cold)
