Disclaimer
Last updated: May 13, 2026
1. Independence Statement
Electric Car Advisors operates on a fee-only model. Our compensation comes exclusively from clients who pay us directly for research, advisory services, and educational products. We do not accept:
- Commissions from automakers (Tesla, Ford, GM, Hyundai, Toyota, Porsche, Rivian, Lucid, etc.)
- Kickbacks from dealers, brokers, or sourcing agents
- Referral fees from auto lenders, leasing companies, or insurers
- Pay-for-placement on our recommended vehicles lists
- Sponsored reviews disguised as editorial content
If we ever accept any form of payment from a third party that could influence our recommendations, we will disclose it clearly on the relevant page.
2. Not Financial Advice
Nothing on this site or in our products and advisory services constitutes investment, financial, or personal financial planning advice. We discuss vehicle pricing, total cost of ownership, financing options, leasing math, and tax-credit eligibility for educational purposes only. Before making a major financial decision, consult a qualified financial professional licensed in your jurisdiction.
3. Not Tax Advice
We frequently discuss federal EV tax credits (Section 30D, 25E, 45W), state incentives, utility rebates, and lease pass-through structures. Tax law is complex and changes often. Eligibility depends on your income, filing status, vehicle, dealer, and purchase structure. Consult a CPA or tax attorney before relying on any tax outcome.
4. Not Legal Advice
Our content may touch on purchase contracts, lemon laws, warranty terms, and dealer disclosures. None of it is legal advice. If you need legal guidance, hire a licensed attorney in your state.
5. Not Mechanical or Engineering Advice
We are EV buyers, researchers, and advisors โ not certified mechanics, electricians, or automotive engineers. Recommendations on home charging installation, battery care, and EV mechanical issues are educational. For installation, repairs, or safety inspections, hire a licensed professional.
6. EV Specs, Range & Performance
Range, charging speed, 0-60 times, towing capacity, payload, and other performance figures are based on manufacturer claims, EPA/WLTP ratings, third-party tests, or our own observations. Real-world results vary significantly with temperature, terrain, driving style, payload, charging infrastructure, and battery age. We do not guarantee that any vehicle will achieve advertised figures for your specific use case.
7. Pricing, Incentives & Availability
EV MSRPs, dealer pricing, lease specials, financing rates, tax credits, and inventory change weekly. Numbers cited on the site reflect what was accurate at time of writing. We make no guarantee that any specific price, rate, credit, or vehicle will be available when you go to purchase.
8. Affiliate Disclosure
In accordance with the FTC 16 CFR Part 255 Endorsement Guides, we disclose that:
- Some outbound links to charging hardware (Level 2 chargers, NEMA 14-50 outlets), accessories, books, and tools may be affiliate links. If you purchase through one, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you.
- Affiliate revenue helps offset hosting and research costs. It does not influence which products we recommend.
- We only link to products we have personally tested, recommended to clients, or vetted against our editorial standards.
- Affiliate links are clearly marked or disclosed in context.
9. Testimonials & Results
Client testimonials, savings figures, and case studies reflect actual past results. Your results will differ based on your starting vehicle, location, market conditions, timing, and choices you make. Past results are not a guarantee of future outcomes.
10. External Links
We link to third-party sites, articles, datasets, and tools. We do not endorse or take responsibility for content on those sites. Their privacy and terms govern your use of them.
11. Errors & Omissions
EV technology, model lineups, software, and policies evolve fast. Despite our best efforts, content may become outdated or contain errors. If you spot something wrong, please email us so we can fix it.
