SUMMARY:Go Electric! Test Drive an EV on Waiheke
DESCRIPTION:Keen to try out an EV on Waiheke? \nTo support the Waiheke Resource Trust’s “Electrify Waiheke’ initiative\, I’m facilitating test drives of the brand new Dongfeng Box\, an affordable\, stylish\, and compact all-electric hatchback\, perfect for the island! I’m NOT selling the car\, just facilitating test drives. Absolutely no pressure (and no worries!) if it’s not for you. \nWith fossil fuel prices on the island regularly over $1 p/litre more than the rest of Aotearoa\, this may be the time to consider your\, stylish\, move to 100% electric. Charge at home with a cheap EV energy plan or for free using your solar array. \nWith a WLTP range of 317kms\, an 8 year / 200\,000kms battery warranty and a 6 year / 200\,000kms vehicle warranty\, you’ll have stress-free travel and be saving $$$ on fossil fuel. \nPrices start from just $24\,990 drive away\, ex-demo (with less than 100ks on the clock) or $26\,990 + ORC’s with 0% finance options which can all be arranged directly with the dealer. \nAll test drives are accompanied and require me to enter your drivers license details on the insurance document. \nMore info about the car can be found here
