FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) Flagstaff local Stewart Weinstein ordered an all-electric vehicle to be environmentally friendly, but now says the unexpected financial perks of his purchase have already piled up before even driving his new car off the lot.
One benefit is that Weinstein can apply for the citys Sustainable Automotive Rebate Program, which offers sales tax rebates for fuel-efficient vehicles purchased at local dealerships.
“I feel the technology and the time is right for these electric vehicles and I like supporting my local community,” Weinstein said. “And it feels like I just keep finding out new, added bonuses of getting this car.”
