Driving Change

Electric buses aren't just cleaner; they are quieter to operate, so companies that pick up employees in urban neighborhoods benefit from less air and noise pollution.

Electric passenger vehicles are exciting. Of equal importance is all those other vehicles big and small that are toiling behind the scenes.

As VW prepares for an unprecedented nationwide of its electric SUV, dealers finally could start playing a much stronger role in getting EVs into the hands of consumers.

The proposal has a long road to travel before it becomes reality, but the spirit of its ideas is historic and could help kick-start a real EV revolution in the U.S.

Electrification of autonomous vehicles, especially robotaxis, makes sense economically.

2021 is a prime opportunity to keep the momentum going by building back with lower-carbon transportation infrastructure.
