there are some excellent deals if i understand right from the chatgeoup to offset emissions from truck sales? fiat actually may lose money on some sales but somehow this becomes profitable thru higher pollutiin vehicles?[/quote]
Not really trying to push you to get something you didn’t ask for…. but I think you’re the kind of guy ready for electric, for the environment and for being cool.
$3000 down + $55 ($49+tax) over 3 years = $4,980 total or $138/mo for 3 years, 30,000 miles included. Consider the time value of money and it’s even cheaper.
No oil changes or anything like that. Negligible electric charging at home. And maybe free if you can charge at work.
How can you go wrong at this price for a commuter car? Yes, Fiat makes up for the losses on the electric (about $15,000 per car) by selling gas guzzlers.
You’re too thrifty for an aspirational Tesla so a Fiat is right up your alley. I can picture you not running the AC to save on range (80 to 100 miles depending how you drive).
Or buy your wife a Tesla and a Fiat for you. Go all electric and lead the way to the future.
I pretty sure your wife and kids will like the Fiat. A car doesn’t get cheaper than that.[/quote]
