BENEFITS TO THE CONSUMER

• True zero-emission vehicle• Affordable pricing• Lower Total Cost of Ownership than a comparable

Internal Combustion Engine• Lower maintenance costs than an ICE vehicle

(Less complexity, no engine, no oil changes)

Electric Vehicle DOE MPG rating: 367 mpg equivalent*

Cost per mile comparison (15k miles):• Car (good 30mpg, $4/gal) = $0.13 per mile / $1,950 • EV (high $0.14 kWh) = $0.04 per mile / $600

Advantage exists even if gasoline drops below $1.10/gal

Level 2 charging will be the majority of charging both at home and in public.

Level 2 charging will be standardized (SAE 1772) by launch and will be used by all OEMs for both electric and plug-in application.

The completion for the Level 3 standard is still in process.
