There has been a major shift in the world towards green living, and almost every aspect of life has been affected, including automobiles. Electric cars are a great investment for people who want to use more renewable sources of energy.
Before you buy an electric car, you are going to have to sell your old vehicle. If you are asking, “Can I value my car online?,” the answer is yes — you can determine how much your car is worth and what a good listing price would be. Once you’ve sold your old car, you’re ready to be an electric car owner.
The following is a list of the most popular electric car models for 2011.
- Chevrolet Volt: This electric car is also a hybrid. It goes 25 to 50 miles in electric mode and then switches to gas for another 300. It has a top speed of 100 mph.
- Nissan Leaf: This car will only be available in the test markets at first (California, Washington, Oregon, Arizona, and Tennessee). It has a top speed of 110 mph.
- Ford Focus EV: This electric car will run on lithium-ion batteries and be able to go 100 miles before needing a charge.
- Coda Sedan: This four-door car can go 90 to 120 miles before needing a charge. It has quite a bit of power, but a max speed of 80 mph.
When you use the Internet, you have access to instant used car prices. This will help you decide how much to ask for your old car so that you can own a more energy-efficient model. Electric cars will be popular in the future because of how “green” they are, so invest in one in 2011.
