We were happy to get the rebate from CVRP. Using the Tesla Model S as my normal commuting car has been exciting, and fun way to get around town.  I like knowing the car has a full tank every morning and ready for my day’s commute.  I enjoy the option of using the HOV lane when traffic is heavy, there have been numerous instances where I saved an hour drive time home by having the HOV access.

I didn’t buy the car anticipating I would be saving money. I realized that my fuel cost per month for the Tesla versus my standard vehicle (six-cylinder motor using regular gasoline) is about 60% less! SDGE just distributed the climate credit for EV owners this year. We received $500.00 credit per EV! The money will cover our EV charging costs for both cars for the next 9 months.

My EV is great, I don’t see myself going back to a gas car after this. My wife purchased the Chevrolet Bolt in March. With two EVs in the household, we almost exclusively drive EV’s on a daily basis.  I’m noticing more EV’s on the road, it’s a great to know more people are making the transition!
