[image http://stblogs.automotive.com/files/2013/02/2013-Ford-Focus-Electric.jpg Ford's First-Ever All-Electric Passenger Car, Focus Electric ] For an electric car, the 2013 Ford Focus Electric delivers an ample amount of acceleration while maintaining the quietness in the cabin one expects from electric vehicles, prompting us to say, “For better or worse, it’s one of the best electric vehicles you can buy today.” With an interior just like any other Ford Focus, the Focus EV delivers the same navigation with SYNC and MyFord Touch, but the cargo room is cut by almost a third, due to the battery placement directly behind the second row seats. Coming with a base price of $30,692, if you live in California, you can take $2,500 off that price, thanks to government incentives, making this car more desirable. However, even though the price may be a bit steep for what is ultimately a second car, “The Focus Electric marks the most advanced electric car we have today for the price.” [© Automotive.com All rights reserved] ... http://www.automotive.com/ford/focus-electric/2013/road-test/ 2013 Ford Focus Electric Road Test For all EVLN posts use: http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/template/NamlServlet.jtp?macro=search_page&node=413529&query=evln&sort=date Here are today's archive-only EV posts: EVLN: 1973 Enfield 8000 Memories are electric EVLN: Michelin&Siemens project to show EV total costs are lower than ice EVLN: Facebook Calls NYT's Broder Report Into Question EVLN: Recycling Materials From Used EV Batteries EVLN: Tesla’s first European deliveries will go to Norway EVLN: UK court dismissed Tesla's libel lawsuit appeal against BBC + EVLN: Nissan updates Leaf electric vehicle (Euro-spec) {brucedp.150m.com} -- View this message in context: http://electric-vehicle-discussion-list.413529.n4.nabble.com/EVLN-28k-Behind-the-Wheel-2013-Ford-Focus-Electric-tp4661692.html Sent from the Electric Vehicle Discussion List mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE: http://www.evdl.org/help/index.html#usub http://lists.evdl.org/listinfo.cgi/ev-evdl.org For EV drag racing discussion, please use NEDRA (http://groups.yahoo.com/group/NEDRA)
