Marin County Ford Joins California’s EV Expert Pledge: Driving Confidence in the Electric Future

July 21st, 2026 by

As more California drivers make the switch to electric vehicles, having knowledgeable guidance throughout the buying process has never been more important. That’s why Marin County Ford is proud to be part of the California New Motor Vehicle Board’s (NMVB) EV Expert Pledge, a statewide initiative that recognizes dealerships committed to providing exceptional education and support for electric vehicle customers.

What Is the EV Expert Pledge?

Launched by the California New Motor Vehicle Board in May 2025, the EV Expert Pledge encourages dealerships across the state to adopt best practices that help customers confidently transition to zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs). The program supports California’s broader climate and transportation goals by ensuring shoppers have access to trained professionals who understand the unique aspects of EV ownership.

Participating dealerships commit to having one or more team members trained as EV Experts who can serve as trusted resources before, during, and after the purchase process.

What It Means for Our Customers

Choosing an electric vehicle is exciting, but it’s natural to have questions. At Marin County Ford, our commitment to the EV Expert Pledge means our team is dedicated to helping customers understand every aspect of EV ownership, including:

  • Electric vehicle fundamentals and how EV technology works
  • Home and public charging options, along with local charging networks
  • Determining whether an EV fits your driving habits and lifestyle
  • Demonstrating vehicle features and operation before you drive home

Our goal is to ensure every customer feels informed and confident when exploring electric vehicle ownership.

Supporting California’s Clean Transportation Future

The EV Expert Pledge is part of a statewide effort to expand access to knowledgeable EV professionals throughout California. By participating, dealerships help advance the California State Transportation Agency’s priorities of safety, equity, climate action, and economic prosperity.

As EV adoption continues to grow, education is just as important as the vehicles themselves. Well-trained dealership staff can answer questions about charging, driving range, maintenance, incentives, and ownership expectations, making the transition to electric transportation easier for everyone.
