Local Dealerships Get Trained Up on How to Serve EV Shoppers

When people shop for an electric vehicle (EV), they often have lots of questions. For example, what local, state and federal incentives are available? How much do you pay to charge an EV? Where can you charge an EV? What are the different levels of charging?

Dealerships are where people often turn to for answers. To help elevate the EV buying experience in our region, our clean transportation team is partnering with the nonprofit Plug in America to provide training to local EV salespeople.

Through Plug in America's PlugStar program, local dealerships are getting the training they need so their salespeople can provide exceptional customer service. Once salespeople undergo the training, dealerships receive the PlugStar certification.

The PlugStar Shopping Assistance
As part of our partnership with Plug in America, customized information about local deals, financial incentives and SDG&E pricing plans for charging EVs is built into into PlugStar.com.

This website is the equivalent of Edmunds and Kelley Blue Book – specifically designed for EV shoppers. Shoppers can compare cars across cost, range, emissions, popularity, and other factors.
