With each passing year, hybrid and electric vehicles become more popular, more easily accessible and quite simply, better. Although our roots are in servicing gasoline powered vehicles, and we still offer this, we have made the decision to only offer hybrid and electric vehicles in our sales department. We believe that the currently available pre-owned models are capable of replacing most traditional gasoline powered vehicles in Maine. Our mission here at Paris Autobarn is to help accelerate Maine’s transition to electrified transportation. We believe that we can achieve this goal by offering affordable pre-owned electric and hybrid vehicles for sale with zero pressure and no documentation fees.
Let’s talk about the two main types of electrified vehicles using simplified descriptions.
Our staff is ready and more than happy to answer your questions about hybrid and electric vehicles. In fact, most of our employees drive hybrid or electric vehicles themselves!
