Chris Dugal is the sales manager at Jim Keay Ford in Orléans. He says their new 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E is a hot commodity.
“People nowadays are definitely more conscious and self-aware of fuel efficiency and saving the planet,” says Dugal. “Electric cars have progressed immensely in the last two years.
