EV Deals

On today’s surprisingly affordable episode of Quick Charge we respond to America’s new, $770/mo. average car payment buy rounding up some affordable EV lease deals at less than HALF the new normal.

Edmunds data shows US average monthly car payments crept over $770 in the closing months of 2025. With rising fuel costs and a shaky job market adding to the chaos, getting around feels more expensive than ever — but fear not! These EV lease deals clock in at under half that price, and can help slash your fuel costs, too!

While the typical buyers cars like the Maserati GranCabrio or Grecale Folgore EVs may not have to ask what one costs, they do need to know what number to write on the check – and if they ask this month, that number could be a staggering $85,000 LOWER than before. (!)

I reached out to a Texas Chevy dealer about a 2023 Bolt EUV LT Redline they list in their inventory, and despite talking to two different reps and probably an AI, I couldn’t get the answer to one simple question: why is their price more than $13,000 above sticker?

The groundbreaking EC230 Electric excavator has spent the last few years proving its worth on job sites around the world – now, Volvo is making it easier than ever to help it prove itself on your job site with an aggressive 0% financing deal.

Lease deals get all the hype, but a lot of people would still rather buy their vehicles. If that sounds like you, you’re in luck, because there’s a whole bunch of great EVs you can buy with 0% financing this month – including the new “affordable” Tesla Model Y Standard!

UPDATE 23JAN2026: Kia EV6 gets 0% financing PLUS customer cash!

Discounts on a brand-new Mercedes G-Wagen are hard to come by, but if your in the market for an electric G-Wagen you’ll want to pay attention: Mercedes is offering a hidden rebate deal on 2026 Mercedes G 580 with EQ Technology SUV that’s worth thousands.

A lot of mainstream auto media coverage right now is pushing the idea that some EVs are “dying.” What we’re really seeing is a wave of end-of-cycle, first-generation vehicles making way for their next-gen replacements. Historically, that’s when buyers get the best deals – so if that’s what you’re after, these are the EVs you should be looking at right now.

UPDATE 11JAN2026: added a PHEV people-mover and a plug-in SUV.

Costco Auto Program is back with fresh, limited-time Cadillac EV deals for members, available now through March 2, 2026. Even better, the Costco discount stacks with other manufacturer incentives, making a good deal even better. So, if you’re in the market for an electric Cadillac, then this is like finding (a good chunk of) money in your jeans pocket.

In this first, thrilling Quick Charge episode of the new year we’ve got declining Tesla sales in China and the US, a rare 0% financing deal on a new Model Y, and a brand-new EV sales champion was crowned in 2025.

Is the end of the year the best time to buy a vehicle? With some older EV models piling up on the lot, you might be able to score some extra savings.

We talk all about the whys and hows behind the all-electric Dodge Charger failing to light up the sales boards the way it lit up its rear tires, but with a base price around $60,000 it hardly seemed to matter — now that Dodge dealers are slashing prices by nearly 50%, however, is this retro EV finally worth a look?

Like a 90s “gifted” kid that was supposed to be a lot of things, the electric Jeep Wagoneer S was supposed to be sporty, luxurious, and appeal to a whole new Jeep buyer. Despite being a decent vehicle, it never really found its place — but now that Jeep is offering nearly $17,000 off select models, it might be time to give the go-fast Wagoneer S a second look.

VW’s retro-tastic minivan hasn’t been the sales success the company might have wanted, and a lot of that has to do with the van’s sky high price tag. Now, VW is asking: will a $10,000 discount be enough to create some buzz for the ID.Buzz?

GM may have decided to pull the plug on the forward-looking Chevy Brightdrop electric van a few months ago, but don’t let that stop you, but don’t let that fool you. Right now might be the best time ever to get your hands on one.

We’re now nearly two months out from the end of the $7,500 federal EV tax credit on September 30, and there are still solid deals to be had on some pretty spiffy EVs. In fact, three of our top five November specials are cheaper than what was offered in September, and two come with home EV chargers and free installation. Here are November’s top 5 EV lease deals, as spotted by our friends at CarsDirect.

When the $7,500 Federal EV tax credit expired September 30th, a number of carmakers leaped into action, offering rebates, price cuts, and promos of their own in a bid to keep the good times rolling. Now, it seems like even Rolls-Royce is getting in on the act with a fresh $5,000 rebate of its own for November.

Polestar may not yet be a household name, but these makers of objectively excellent, sporty EVs with Scandinavian sensibilities are doing everything they can to change that — including offering killer post-rebate deals set to take the fight to Tesla.

While the typical buyers of the flagship Mercedes-Maybach EQS 680 may not have to ask what one costs, they do need to know what number to write on the check – and if they happen to be asking this month, that number will be $50,000 LOWER than before.

Cadillac wants to live up to its “standard of the world” tag line so bad they can taste is – but adding $60K to the CELESTIQ’s MSRP might not be the flex the marketing team might think. To teach them a lesson, we’re going to ignore the CELESTIQ and list every new EV you can buy for less than that $60K price hike, instead. Enjoy!

EV lease prices look better than expected, despite the end of the federal tax credit and the 25% import tariff being in place. Prices have crept up compared to last month, but several automakers have covered the $7,500 credit themselves or added extra incentives, and the price of one EV even dropped. Here are October’s top EV lease deals, spotted by our friends at CarsDirect.
