What are the financial advantages to buying a new hybrid electric car?
There's actually two-fold perks to purchasing a hybrid electric vehicle. For one thing, you most hybrid electric cars are eligible for a sizeable income tax credit, totaling up to $7,500 in some cases. This makes buying a new hybrid electric vehicle a great bit for guests who're looking to cut down on their year-end tax bill.
On top of that, there's the long-term cost-of-ownership to consider. One of the main advantages to buying or leasing a new hybrid electric vehicle is the fuel economy savings you'll enjoy. In fact, most many of the hybrid electric shoppers we've served here at our Pocatello dealership chose to do so primarily because they can go further while using less gas.
On top of that, hybrid electric vehicles traditionally have lower overall long-term maintenance costs than conventional gasoline or diesel-powered models. And given the fact that Subaru cars are already well-known for their long-lasting durability, you can be certain that a new Subaru hybrid electric vehicle will stand the test of time.

While there may be a higher upfront cost to buying or leasing a new hybrid electric vehicle, it's not always the case that they're more expensive. In fact, when you account for the lower cost of ownership and tax advantages mentioned above, you may just discover that buying or leasing a new hybrid electric vehicle is a net savings overall.
