Sounds like a really good deal, even with the decent-sized up-front payment. I would have gone for it in a second if Ford had made something like it available in my area, but they didn't, so I settled for a decent Leaf lease deal.

Hi - How long is your obligation? Is the $299 per month what you're actually paying each month? This is a great-looking price, but is also a little bittersweet for me to look at. I gave up on waiting for Ford to get around to offering the vehicle in my area in Arizona, and at a truly...

Thanks, like your points. I have never been sure as to NMAC, but I'll take your point as a working assumption. It is not GM which directly receives the $7500 credit but rather Ally Financial (the old GMAC, which I believe technically is not part of GM any more in a substantial way) and other...

Thanks Red, this is good to know. I'd like to consider the C-MAX Energi PHEV or the Fusion Energi PHEV, but they don't appear to have liquid cooling and would involve me waiting through many more months of Ford taking its time. I'm in Arizona so I'm trying to favor liquid cooling, though I am...

Side note: I am really frustrated and angry with Ford. The FFE looks good, but the Volt and Leaf have been out for nearly two years now, and have worked the kinks out and Ford, with their dithering, is not even available in my state yet. I guess they are not as committed as Chevy to offering...

Has anyone leased a Ford Focus Electric? What terms/monthly costs? I was quoted roughly between $600 and $700 per month including California taxes when I called a dealer there, depending on if a 36 month or 24 month lease. Most of the competition has come down dramatically over the last few...

I spoke to a Tucson dealer the other day that is slated to receive the vehicle, but wasn't able to get any sort of details.

Thanks, another very useful answer. For my own expenditure possibility, I would change this last sentence to: "Ford having the benefit of hindsight on this issue will hopefully have done a decent job of trying to address it." I can't quite afford to make too many assumptions on this point...

Thanks, very interesting, didn't know this feature was there. If it's engineered well, then if I leave it plugged in, it will be smart about whether it should be charging or not, for optimum battery life. I feel like there is a lot more to learn. I've been following EVs and the industry and...

I've been joining these various forums on myelectriccarforums.com and am in the market for a car and so one of my goals is to educate myself about some buying points for myself. My initial questions about the ford focus electric: - For warm climates (I am in Arizona) are there any...
