Electric vehicles in San Antonio

Electric vehicles (EVs) are gaining traction among active drivers, particularly in markets like China and the Netherlands, where they are driven significantly more than internal combustion engine vehicles. Despite their growing popularity, the U.S. shows varied adoption rates, with California leading in EV usage, while many states see lower mileage for battery electric vehicles compared to ICE cars. In San Antonio, a new VIA Link Zone will provide ride-hailing services using electric vehicles, aiming to enhance public transportation and connectivity in the downtown area. Additionally, Jersey is launching a new electric car hire service at its airport and ferry terminal to promote sustainable tourism, featuring a flexible A2B pick-up and drop-off system. These initiatives underscore a broader trend towards electrification in transportation, driven by economic incentives and sustainability goals.
