Ford Pro Introduces Electric Vehicle Dealer Demonstration Program

For the first time, Ford Pro is allowing dealer demonstrations of the full EV lineup – Lightning, Mach-E, standard and enhanced range E-Transit – exclusively for local and state government customers across the country.

The 2024 Ford Pro Electric Vehicle Dealer Demonstration Program is set up to help continue Ford Pro's focus on educating dealers and customers within the public sector about the benefits of electrification by experiencing first hand with a lower cost and investment barrier. The program is aimed at achieving this by making more demo vehicles available to dealers at a reduced cost to them and incentivizes the promotion of the EV lineup.  

"The 2024 Ford Pro Electric Vehicle Dealer Demonstrator Program is a great example of the education we're providing to dealers and government customers," said Nathan Oscarson, Ford Pro sales manager for federal state and local government. "By reducing the cost of demonstrator vehicles available to dealers, we are making it easier for our state and local government customers to drive and experience our full lineup of EVs: the F-150 Lightning, Mustang Mach-E, and the Enhanced Range E-Transit. It's often said that to drive an EV is to love an EV, and this initiative accelerates that discovery."
