Green Updates on Jim Ellis Brands

This website is intended to serve as a hub of information for our customers who are interested in the greater fuel efficiency, and the reduced environmental impact of the cars that they choose to drive every day.

Many of the Jim Ellis brands, including Audi, Buick, Chevrolet, GMC, and Volkswagen already have green cars available, and have had green cars on their lots for quite some time.   Others, such as Mitsubishi and Porsche, have models that are set for release in the near future.  Our newest dealership, Jim Ellis Wheego is 100% green, and is the flagship of our green product line-up.

Others still, including Hyundai, Saab and Mazda are making longer-term plans to include electric cars, plug-in hybrids and other emerging technologies in their vehicle line-ups.  This site will serve as a clearinghouse for news and information about the green initiatives of all of our represented brands.

Which Vehicles Are Included?
We have defined very clear requirements for what qualifies a car as "green" on our websites.   To be included on the inventory pages here, a vehicle must meet one of the following requirements:

• Electric Vehicles - Zero-Emissions vehicles with no gasoline necessary
• Clean Diesel cars and SUVs - the low-carbon impact of the VW and Audi TDI line
  
• Hybrid or Plug-in Hybrid Automobiles - From the Chevy Volt to a used Toyota Prius
  
• FlexFuel compatible - Biofuel-compatible vehicles that can use E85 Ethanol instead of traditional petroleum-based gasoline
• Ultra Fuel-Efficient cars  - Cars that achieve 40 mpg (or above!)
  

We also know that you might have some questions about which vehicles are eligible for Alternative Fuel License Plates, as well as State and Federal Tax incentives, so we've tried to include as much information about these topics.
