Someone else on another forum quoted this misleading article: http://www.autonews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20111214/OEM04/111219936/1186" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
I assume $32,495 is after the $7500 tax credit which the Volt and Leaf also qualify for.
Since I didn't know the FFE's price until I dug into it myself, after digging, I found that at http://www.ford.com/electric/focuselectric/2012/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;, after clicking on Build & Price and the price is $39,995, including destination charge, making it more expensive than the Leaf.Ford took aim at its rivals, pricing the Focus electric at $32,495, including shipping. Ford has begun taking orders for the Focus electric and has begun building the cars at its Michigan Assembly Plant in Wayne, Mich.
The Nissan Leaf is priced at $36,050, while the Chevrolet Volt is priced at $39,995, including delivery fees.
The Focus EV will also qualify for a federal income tax credit of up to $7,500. Buyers of the Leaf and Volt also qualify for tax credits.
