“The timing of AMP's qualifying for the Federal Plug-in Electric Drive Motor Vehicle Credit of $7,500, which applies to retail and fleet buyers, couldn't be better," said Jim Taylor, AMP CEO. "Given the recent increase in gas prices and the low operating cost of an EV, more buyers are turning their attention to EV alternatives."
