Environmental Benefits of EV Ownership

Owning an electric vehicle (EV) isn't just a smart choice for your wallet; it's a powerful way to protect our planet for generations to come. Here at Ourisman Subaru Waldorf, we're committed to a cleaner, greener future, and we believe EVs are a big part of that journey.
Switching to EVs is a powerful way to help the environment. Here’s why going electric is a step toward building a cleaner, healthier planet.

Low Emissions Across the Board
All-electric vehicles don’t just cut down on tailpipe emissions—they completely eliminate them, tackling a major source of urban air pollution. And that’s not all. When powered by renewable energy, EVs can deliver ultra-low or even zero “wheel-to-wheel” emissions, redefining clean transportation.
“Wheel-to-wheel emissions” refers to all the pollution and greenhouse gases created from producing and delivering the energy your vehicle runs on. Gas-powered cars generate more than double the yearly CO2 emissions of EVs. Plus, with electricity coming from renewable sources like wind and solar, EV owners have the opportunity to significantly shrink their carbon footprint.
Green Solutions for Refueling and More
Say goodbye to gas stations and hello to cleaner energy with an EV. Pairing your EV with home solar panels is a smart move, cutting your carbon footprint while lowering utility bills. Solar energy is accessible, eco-friendly, and can pay for itself in just a few years—making it a win for your wallet and the planet!
Even if you can't install solar panels at home, you can still power your life with clean energy. Many utility companies now have renewable energy purchase programs, and community solar projects are popping up nationwide. This allows you to charge your EV with green energy without needing your own solar setup.


Incredible Efficiency
Electric vehicles (EVs) aren’t just better for the environment—they’re also far more efficient. While gas-powered cars average about 24.7 miles per gallon, many EVs surpass 100 MPGe (miles per gallon equivalent). That’s a measurement created by the EPA to show how far an EV can travel using the same energy as a gallon of gasoline. In some cases, EVs are four times as efficient as traditional gas cars.
