"West Coast's #1 EV dealership" and "top-rated" reflect Diplomat Motors' cumulative sales volume and aggregated customer review ratings across our two Portland-area galleries; they are not an independent or third-party ranking. The 150-point inspection is Diplomat Motors' internal reconditioning checklist and is not a warranty, guarantee, or certification of future performance; unless a written warranty or service contract is provided at sale, used vehicles are sold as-is.

Advertised prices exclude taxes, title, license and registration fees, a $795 anti-theft fee, and a $200 document fee. Finance incentives require financing arranged through Diplomat Motors and are subject to lender approval. Payment figures and trade-in estimates are informational estimates only — not offers of credit or firm appraisals. Vehicle condition, mileage, range, availability, and pricing are subject to change and may contain errors; please verify all details with the gallery before purchase.
