The world seems awfully tinderbox-y these days, what with a heat dome descending over the US, the Strait of Hormuz getting locked down, and gas prices set to climb on rising oil prices. As such, it might be a good time to buy that slick new EV you’ve had your eye on. If that sounds like you, you’re in luck! There are a bunch of great plug-in cars you can buy with 0% financing in June, 2025!

As I was putting this list together, I realized there were plenty of ways for me to present this information. “Best EVs ..?” Too opinion based. “Cheapest EVs ..?” Too much research. “Biggest discount deal ..?” Too individualized. In the end, I went with alphabetical order, by make. And, as for which deals are new this month? You’re just gonna have to check the list. Enjoy!

Acura ZDX

A solidly-built EV with GM levels of parts support and Honda levels of fit, finish, and quality control plus Apple CarPlay? That’s the Acura ZDX, and (through June 30th) you can get yours with 0% financing for up to 72 months, making the ZDX one the best sporty crossover values in the business.

Chevy Brightdrop ZEVO

GM Authority is reporting that the $25,500 discount rolled out to Chevy Brightdrop dealers nationwide has been extended through June 30th on both the Zevo 400 and 600 models, and that the massive Brightdrop price drop is stackable with up to $3,000 in Costco member savings plus 0% interest financing.

If you’re looking for a new truck for your business or even a unique #vanlife ride with zero emissions, modern tech, and a nationwide dealer network, GM makes that $130 Executive membership seem like a no-brainer.

Every electric Chevrolet

Chevrolet is offering 0% financing for up to 60 months on all three of its remaining 2024 model year Ultium-based EVs – and they’re all winners. The Silverado can be spec’ed up to a 10,500 lb. GVWR, making it capable enough to tow whatever horse, boat, or RV you put behind it.

On the crossover side, both the Chevy Blazer EV and Equinox EV each offer their own takes on the five-passenger family SUV, with the cost of base model Equinox LT FWD models with 319 miles of EPA-rated range dropping to just $27,500 after you apply the $7,500 Federal tax credit (which, for now, is still a thing).

Dodge Charger Daytona

Dodge dealers are hoping that at least a few muscle car enthusiasts with extra cash will find their way to a Dodge store and ask for the meanest, loudest, tire-shreddingest thing on the lot without caring too much about what’s under the hood. For them, Dodge has the new electric Charger, and Dodge will help get the deal done on its latest retro-tastic ride with 0% interest financing for up to 72 months!

Ford Mustang Mach-E, F-150 Lightning

This month, you can get a killer deal on a new Ford Mustang Mach-E, with 0% interest financing for up to 72 months on the sporty plug-in pony car.

If you’re looking for something more practical, the Ford F-150 Lightning is a reasonably capable half-ton truck with V2X capabilities that first proved themselves during Texas’ 2021 ice storms, when they backed up people’s homes while they waited for power to get restored. Ford Pro customers buying an F-150 Lightning for their commercial or public fleet also get Ford’s support in sourcing grants and incentives – meaning your fleet manager would be crazy not to take a serious look at this electric pickup.

GMC Sierra + Hummer EVs


2025 GMC Sierra

Another legacy brand with a solid Powerwall option, the big Ultium-based EVs from GM’s commercial truck brand are seriously impressive machines, with shockingly quick acceleration and on-road handling that seems to defy the laws of physics once you understand that these are, essentially, medium-duty trucks. This month, GMC is doing its best to move out its existing inventory, so if you’re a fan of heavy metal you’ll definitely want to stop by your local GMC dealer and give the Hummer EV a test drive.

Hyundai IONIQ 6


Hyundai-IONIQ-6-price-2024

From some angles, the Porsche influences in the Hyundai IONIQ 6′ design are obvious – but not so much so that it seems like a copy of anything. It’s aerodynamically efficient, comfortable, quick, offers up to 361 miles of rangecan charge just about anywhere, and now through June 30th, it’s available with 0% financing for up to 48 months.

Jeep Wagoneer S


Jeep-Wagoneer-S-Limited
Electric Jeep Wagoneer S; via Stellantis.

With some dealers advertising massive $25,000 discounts, the Jeep Wagoneer S is a confusingly named EV diamond in the rough. This high-riding crossover rides on a lifted version of the same Stellantis platform as the Dodge Charger, and seems more than ready to deliver solid range and on-road performance.

With those killer deals and 0% interest for up to 72 months through June 30th, the Wagoneer S might just be the best Jeep deal you’re going to find this month!

Lexus RZ


Lexus-lease-cash-RZ

Starting at $55,175, the Lexus RZ promises up to 266 miles of EPA-rated range from a 72.8 kWh battery back in the “base” RZ300e (and 224 from the top-shelf RZ450e, shown above). With up to 308 hp and over 195 lb-ft of instant, all-electric torque, the RZ promises to be one Lexus’ zippier rides in any trim.

US News is reporting that remaining 2024 and ’25 Lexus RZ models qualify for 0% financing for up to 72 months in some regions.

Nissan Ariya

I’ve already said that the Nissan Ariya didn’t get a fair shake. If you click that link, you’ll read about a car that offers solid driving dynamics, innovative interior design, and all the practicality that makes five-passenger crossovers the must-haves they’ve become for most families. With up to 289 miles of EPA-rated range, Tesla Supercharger access, and 0% interest from Nissan for up to 72 months, Nissan dealers should have no trouble finding homes for these.

Tesla Model 3

Say what you will about Elon Musk, we wouldn’t be here talking about EVs at all if it wasn’t for his marketing brilliance, bravado, and sheer force of will. Beyond that, Tesla simply offers as superior ownership experience through total software integration, unfettered access to the Supercharger network, and the best EV route-planning software this side of Chargeway.

If you can stomach being associated with Elon (or have an inside line on some spare Honda badges), you can get a new Model 3 for 0% interest or 0.99% with $0 down if you apply the $7,500 Federal tax incentive at the point of purchase.

Toyota bZ4X


Toyota-GM-EV-battery-plant

Toyota is updating its bZ4X with a new name and a slightly updated look for 2026, but the 2025 model is still a solid mid-sized contended that packs Toyota’s reputation for reliability with a staggering three decades of modern EV battery know-how that goes back to the OG Prius launched in 1997.

With an updated bZ waiting in the wings, the current bZ4X EV might be the best deal in Toyota’s current lineup with big discounts on remaining 2024 and 2025 model year bZ4X crossovers happening all month long.

VW ID.4

VW ID4.

One of the most popular legacy EVs, the ID.4 offers Volkswagen build quality and a Chat-GPT enabled interface. Still, with a relatively affordable base price, lickety-quick charging, up to 291 miles of EPA-rated range, and a 5-star safety rating, and 0% interest financing for 72 months, the ID.4 offers a value proposition that’s tough to beat.

Disclaimer: the vehicle models and financing deals above were sourced from CarsDirectCarEdge, and (where mentioned) the OEM websites – and were current as of 23JUN2025. These deals may not be available in every market, with every discount, or for every buyer (the standard “with approved credit” fine print should be considered implied). Check with your local dealer(s) for more information.

Personalize your Tesla and add range with HALODISC 2 wheel covers

Tesla drivers, if you’ve been looking for a way to protect your OEM wheels, turn heads, and bonus – squeeze out more range! – the all-new HALODISC 2 Custom Numbers wheel covers from Haloblk (pronounced “halo-black”) check every box.

Racing-inspired performance meets everyday practicality

The HALODISC 2 wheel covers feature a racing-inspired center-lock system, ensuring maximum stability and safety at every speed. Installation takes just 30 seconds using the included tool, and the full-coverage design shields your OEM wheels from scratches and curb rash.

Personalize them: your number, your story

Here’s where things get really fun. The Custom Numbers Series lets you choose a number from 00 to 99 – maybe it’s your birth year, a lucky number, or something meaningful to you. You can also engrave up to 30 characters of custom text on each wheel cover. Whether it’s a motto, a dedication, or something that makes you smile, this bespoke touch makes your Tesla truly yours.

Built for every Tesla

The HALODISC 2 wheel covers fit all major Tesla models, including the Model 3, Model 3 Highland, Model Y, Model Y Juniper, Model S, and Model X. They’re compatible with 20+ OEM wheel sizes, so you can upgrade your ride no matter what you drive.

Bonus gift for Electrek readers

The first 10 customers who purchase HALODISC 2 Custom Numbers using the ELECTREK25 promo code will receive a free HALOBLK Carbon Fiber Emblem – Halo Effect Series.

This emblem is crafted from genuine carbon fiber – not plastic or chrome – delivering lightweight durability, impact resistance, and a high-performance aesthetic. Built to resist UV, weather, and everyday wear, it retains its gloss and finish over time, unlike standard ABS or plated emblems that fade.

With eight different carbon weave and light-reflective finishes, the Halo Effect Series gives Tesla owners unique styling options. It’s a rare upgrade: True carbon fiber emblems are typically reserved for racing and high-performance vehicles.

Choosing one is more than just an aesthetic decision; it’s a cultural nod to motorsport heritage and a way to stand out from uniform OEM emblems. It ships together with your HALODISC 2 order (US only).

Tesla pushes Tron: Ares ad inside its cars, upsetting owners

Tesla pushes Tron: Ares ad inside its cars, upsetting owners

Tesla has partnered with its recent foe, Disney, to promote its latest movie, Tron: Ares, with an in-car update that is not making everyone happy.

Many owners view it as Tesla making in-car advertisements and/or working on something that distracts them from needed software updates.

Today, Tesla announced and began pushing an update to its car owners, which essentially amounts to an advertisement for Disney’s new movie, Tron: Ares.

The update enables owners to turn their in-car visualization into a Tron bike.

Advertisement – scroll for more content

The update is surprising on several levels, as it essentially serves as an advertisement for a Disney movie.

Elon Musk, Tesla’s CEO, is notoriously not a fan of Disney and has even removed Disney+ from the Tesla Theater.

However, more importantly, Tesla is pushing advertisements to its vehicle owners inside their cars, and people are not happy.

Examining the first few dozen comments below the announcement, the reaction is mainly negative.

Tesla owner Matt Chinander wrote:

“Oh good, advertisements are making it in my car.”

Austin Harrison added:

I’m sorry but this is an absolutely worthless update. Also, when did Tesla start partnering with woke companies like Disney? Didn’t Elon just go a rampage LAST WEEK against woke?

Tesla owners are also upset that the automaker spent time and resources developing this software update rather than working on more significant updates, such as delivering on its long-promised full self-driving capabilities, especially on older HW3 cars, which have been left untouched for more than a year.

Electrek’s Take

Yes, this is not a good look. This is definitely a promotional effort for the movie. The question is: Is Tesla getting paid for this?

Is it really pushing advertising inside its vehicles?

Even if it is a cross-promotional effort, it doesn’t look great, and it’s a clear step toward automakers pushing ads inside connected vehicles.

I am not a fan all around. The idea of Tesla pushing ads in-car is not ideal, and this partnership itself is a questionable move.

I loved the original Tron movie. Legacy wasn’t great, but the soundtrack was outstanding. That said, I don’t have high hopes for this new one based on the trailer, which looked cheesy. It currently holds a 55% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.

The most disappointing aspect is that Tesla would spend any effort on this rather than on much-needed updates to its user interface and other software features within its vehicles.

Prediction: within the next year, Tesla will start doing this more often and offer an “ad-free experience” with its “premium connectivity subscription.”

Ford just scrapped its $7,500 EV tax credit program, but there’s still a way to save

Ford just scrapped its ,500 EV tax credit program, but there's still a way to save

Ford is no longer planning to offer a program that would extend the $7,500 EV tax credit for at least another few months. The company said it will continue offering competitive lease payments.

Ford ends $7,500 EV tax credit program for leases

Just a day after GM suddenly ended plans for a program to extend the $7,500 EV tax credit for leases, Ford announced it will also end the offer.

“Ford will not claim the EV tax credit,” a company spokesperson confirmed with Reuters on Thursday. However, don’t expect all the savings to disappear. At least, not yet. The spokesperson added Ford will still offer the “competitive lease payments we have in the market today.”

The move comes after crosstown rival GM announced a similar decision on Wednesday. Last week, Reuters reported that Ford and GM were planning to launch programs to extend the $7,500 tax credit for EV leases.

The program involved purchasing EVs from dealer inventories through their financing divisions, enabling them to become eligible for the credit.

Ford and GM would then use the funds to continue offering the $7,500 credit for those leasing an EV. The programs were expected to run at least a few months after the September 30 deadline.

The company spokesperson said Ford Credit is still offering 0% APR financing for 72 months, along with other incentives, for electric vehicle buyers.

A source close to the matter told Reuters that GM scrapped the program after Republican Senator Bernie Moreno called to close a loophole that enabled the credit to be passed on through leasing.

“GM worked on an extended offer for the benefit of our customers and dealers,” a company spokesperson said, adding, “After further consideration, we have decided not to claim the tax credit.” The company will provide about $6,000 of its own cash instead to continue supporting EV leases. GM will also continue to fund the incentive lease terms until the end of October.

Several automakers are promising to keep the savings going with incentives of their own, including Hyundai, BMW, and Stellantis.
