Listen Later

On today's exciting episode of Quick Charge, we explore not one but two existing electric truck fleets that crossed the 5 million miles driven mark this year, along with some potentially exciting news for last-minute shoppers looking for a sweet deal on a new Toyota or GMC Sierra EV, and the Electrek EV of the year.

We've also got a rundown of some of the best new 0% financing deals to close out 2024, featuring news from Ford, GMC, and Toyota. We also talk about why Tesla got omitted from the list.
