Most #ElectricVehicles—cars, crossovers, and trucks—cost more to charge than their gas-powered counterparts, according to a new study. The study highlights the wisdom of considering the real-world costs of operating a vehicle before purchasing.

Benefits of electric cars are 'so extensive' to help drivers ditch petrol and diesel cars The benefits of electric vehicles will help drivers, fleets and businesses adapt to the looming ban on the sale of petrol and diesel vehicles, according to an expert.

With GM and other automakers admitting declining interest in electric vehicles to include slowing down electric vehicle production and the constant articles of real-world frustration of currently owning an electric vehicle (charging stations, tax credit confusion, availability), is this initiative an inevitable disaster for California and a economic boom for neighboring states.

The MOR-EV rebate for electric cars underwent some big changes this year. Learn more at next week's webinar! We’ll discuss rebates for: - New EVs - Used EVs - Trucks - Income-qualified residents https://bit.ly/3UfN8Xy

The automakers should have went to plug in hybrids a decade ago!! If they would have, they would have had far fewer misfires, had far greater EV adoption, appeared better in the public eyes, their dealers would have more confident in their decisions and they would have seen higher stock valuations for their shareholders in my humble opinion. It’s what I have been telling the conventional automakers for over 10 years (Tesla not included) until battery prices hit $100 per kWh. Then go hard on pure electric vehicles and harder again at $50 per kWh. Over a decade ago, I predicted $20 per kWh is what we needed to see mass electrification of vehicles which was hard to believe that a 99% price reduction was possible. However….now it’s coming fast. Today I am now predicting we will see $2 per kWh with a some disruption in battery technology by 2030-2040. VIA motors was using the GM pickup and van platforms, electrifying them so that they would have about 40 miles of electric range and then the gas engine would power up the battery pack by acting as a generator, constantly working at a very efficient RPM with far better fuel efficiency compared to the same truck powered by gas only. Do you think plug-in hybrids should age come earlier? Are they the future?

Many businesses are taking it slow when it comes to van electrification because they’re concerned about range and costs. However, this isn’t always the case. By crunching numbers and getting your planning right, it may be possible to drive high mileages in electric vans.
