New green business in North Liberty

North Liberty company opens dealership for used electronic cars

A brand new car dealership opened its doors in North Liberty today with a unique fleet of used electronic vehicles.

“Iowa tends to be very progressive and we really want to normalize EVs as soon as possible,” Leah Furnish, the Vice President for VERV Auto Sales said. “They are just improved machines compared to outdated combustion engines.”

VERV is an off shoot of an already established Eastern Iowa company. Moxie provides Solar services to communities around the Midwest. Its owner Jason Hall wanted to be even more impact and was looking for opportunities to grow sustainable business models in the area. He is starting out with 12 electric vehicles all geared towards getting people a chance to learn more about electronic cars and focusing on the used aspect of getting vehicles.

“We want to improve anything we can on the environmental sustainability front as fast as possible,” Furnish said. ” EVs are a natural transition to do more good. “We joke about being Teslar on a budget. We are going to offer Teslars but more importantly we want to make sure everybody understands EVs, that they are available to everyone whatever their budget is and whatever their driving situation is.”

VERV is going to offer their vehicles in a three teared system based on cost. A Chevy Spark or Nissan Leaf at the lower end for cost are going to be there as much as a potentially $70000 Teslar waiting to dazzle Eastern Iowa.

“I am so excited we can make a difference,” Furnish said. “Normalizing EVs and making them available to everyone, we want to pose ourselves as the EV experts so that we can help find the best solution for their needs.”
