Ford Focus Electric : $ 29,995
The Focus Electric is getting a price drop — a hefty one at that . The 2015 model is down $ 6,000 from its previous price in hopes to get more people to shell out the cash for the car . Other than that , though , the 2015 model isn ’ t very different from the previous years , though the differences between the regular Focus and EV version are even less noticeable .
“ The exterior visual distinctions between the ice and EV are minimal , and basically nonexistent from the A-pillar to the rear ,” Sebastian Blaco , writing for AutoBlog , said . “ Up front , you can see the charge port , of course , but the front fascia has also undergone a bit of an adjustment . The front doesn ’ t have the ice version ’ s flattened grille and the EV ’ s Ford logo creates a bump in the hood line where none exists on the ice . The 2015 ’ s grille is also different than the one on the 2014 Focus Electric , being slightly smaller ( you can see this better if you compare pictures in our new gallery above to these of the 2011 Focus Electric and these of the gas-powered 2015 Focus ).”
There ’ s also a slight difference in the 2015 intertior , but it ’ s minimal . So , if it ’ s all the same as a gas-powered version , why not just go electric ?
