On Monday, he revealed a move that will hold true to several of them, resulting in more electric vehicles and more American jobs.

Volkswagen CEO Herbert Diess has teased the company’s project that will potentially rival... 
The Hyundai Ioniq Plug-In Hybrid offers a different kind of experience than other PHEVs.

California Governor Gavin Newsom signed an executive order last September to have all new passenger car and truck sales in the state be all-electric by 2035.

Given typical driving patterns, there isn’t a single gasoline-fueled vehicle you can buy today that, on a national basis, promises to be as clean over its lifetime as a fully electric one. That’s confirmed by “well-to-wheels” data from the Union of Concerned Scientists, in what continues to be the most complete assessment...

This and more, here at Green Car Reports. We have an update on 2021 Ford Mustang Mach-E fast-charging. All-important for weekend road-trips, we found that the Mach-E might... 
Longer road trips are now possible with nearly all U.S.-market electric cars, thanks to rather long range ratings and DC fast charging along major highways. Each EV has a different combination of those two things, though. Getting ready for electric road trips means being realistic about both of those sets of numbers—about highway range, and...
