Car dealers specializing in green transportation as consumers consider environmental impact
American consumers are increasingly attempting to engage alternative fuel vehicle to replace their conventional gas burning vehicles. The problem is, very few retailers selling neighborhood electric vehicles, converted electric cars, used hybrids and biodiesel-ready reliable transportation exist. Getting all of these vehicles under one roof, so customers can effectively cross shop, is the major challenge.
An article over at MSNBC, however, indicates that such dealerships are coming to fruition, albeit in small numbers. Across ten states, 16 “green car dealerships” have the capacities to provide test drives in more than just gasoline, diesel or gas-electric mainstream manufacturer supplied models.
For example, Eco Auto Inc. of Bozeman, Montana is currently converting a 2008 Subaru Forester to run entirely on electricity. The Green Car Company of Kirkland, Oregon keeps the latest stock of alternative fuel vehicles, no matter the “segment.” The commitment is certainly out there.
