Passengers in California Can Now Pay to Use Robotaxis

The past decade has seen great advancements in automobile technology. Tesla showed that electric vehicles were a viable transportation option, and in the decade since the firm launched its first electric vehicle (“EV”), the industry has come a long way. Now, we aren’t just talking about electric vehicles, we are also seeing firms develop autonomous, self-driving vehicles. And thanks to two new programs approved by the California Public Utilities Commission (“CPUC”), people in California will soon be able to ride in a self-driving “robotaxi.” For quite a while, the Sunshine state has been familiar with self-driving vehicles, with the CPUC…

Milan Orders 100 Additional Electric Buses

The future of transportation is electric. The past decade has seen increased interest in electric vehicles (“EVs”), which run on clean energy and produce no emissions at the tail (exhaust) pipe. This increased interest has culminated in initiatives by several governments to replace fossil-fuel vehicles with EVs. Although we are still a long way from widespread EV use, partly due to the high initial cost of purchasing an EV, several cities have already started electrifying their taxi and bus fleets to cut down on emissions. In Milan, for instance, efforts to electrify the fleet of buses are already underway. Municipal…

EV Manufacturers Join Forces to Advocate for Switch to Electric Vehicles

The past few years have seen increased interest in electric vehicles (“EVs”), especially as we become more aware of the effects of global warming and the role humans have played in heating up the planet. Transportation accounts for more than 24% of global carbon emissions, and several governments have announced initiatives designed to increase EV adoption over the next two decades and fully electrify our roads. For instance, in Europe, the UK, France, and Germany, and have set timelines for the ban of new fossil fuel vehicles; stateside, California has followed suit. A group of companies in the electric vehicle…

Research Finds That Only 8% of Brits Are Ready to Buy EVs

In a bid to reduce carbon emissions and the impact they have on the planet, several developed countries have announced plans to phase out internal combustion engine (“ICE”) automobiles in favor of electric vehicles (“EVs”) during the next decade or so. The UK has what is perhaps the most ambitious plan of all: to ban the sale of new fossil fuel vehicles by 2030 to help electrify roads across Britain. This would require automakers to stop selling new petrol and diesel cars and vans by 2030, allowing the sale of hybrid cars and vans that produce minimal emissions from their…

Switching to EVs Triggers Burst of Innovation in Manufacturing

In a bid to reduce carbon emissions and conserve the environment, several developed countries have pledged to phase out internal combustion engines for electric vehicles over the next decades. Powered by clean renewable energy and emitting zero emissions at the tailpipe, electric vehicles (“EVs”) are the perfect vehicle for a net-zero economy. Like the internet in the late ‘90s and early 2000s, EVs have completely disrupted the automotive industry, forcing players across the supply chain to either adapt with the times or be left behind. For instance, the emergence of EVs has seen a rise in the use of “skateboard”…

NASA Completes Propeller Test for Fully Electric Plane

With electric vehicles (“EVs”) poised to take over the roads in the next decade or two, there has been increased interest in electrifying other forms of transport. But with the EV industry still in its infancy, doing so in the near future may prove to be a challenge. Bill Gates famously claimed that electric trucks, cargo ships, and jets would “probably never” happen, but companies such as Rivian, BYD and Daimler Trucks, which are developing electric trucks, buses and vans, are proving that nothing is impossible in the EV space. Conversely, NASA has been working on an electric plane prototype,…
