More candid talk on EVs please
While commercial electric vehicles continue to be the darlings of trade shows, experts are getting more vocal about taking the necessary steps to ensure their success and yours.

Concerns with range and long charge times led USPS to embrace internal combustion. Over 100 years later the agency is working to deploy 66,000 EVs by 2028 making it one of the largest EV fleets in the nation. Here's to hoping that they've clearly thought through range, charging infrastructure and battery lifecycle management.
