The full story
Why Earth Motorcars earned this grade
CarEdge reviewed one eligible quote from Earth Motorcars in May 2026, so the sample is small. The review considers dealer fees, required extras, selling prices and whether charges are clearly shown.
What they do well
- ✓ Dealer fees were itemized. The quote listed $1,670.50 in dealer fees, making the charge visible before agreeing.
Where to push back
The quote’s $1,670.50 in dealer fees was well above the Median state fee in Texas of $229.75. That state median is the middle fee amount in the reference sample; with one quote reviewed here, ask the dealer to explain the difference and whether the fees can be reduced.
The quote also included $1,790 in required extras. Ask which extras are required and whether any can be removed. Before agreeing, request an itemized written offer showing the selling price, dealer fees, required extras, taxes and government charges.

How we know this
Every number on this page came from a real deal.
