Bolt EV Agreement, Declining EV Attraction, Honda Hydrogen Truck: Today’s Automotive Updates
Car manufacturers may be alienating younger electric vehicle buyers due to the absence of low-priced options. Honda launches a hydrogen-powered semi-truck, initiating a fresh campaign for its fuel-cell technology. Additionally, high-power charging solutions for large electric trucks are beginning to be implemented. Catch these stories and more at Green Car Reports.
A recent study by J.D. Power indicates a decrease in enthusiasm for electric vehicles compared to the previous year. The research, which has been monitoring this trend since 2021, noted a drop in interest among potential new car buyers, attributing this shift partially to the scarcity of budget-friendly electric vehicles, a crucial factor for younger consumers, particularly those from Generation Z and Millennials.
Charging equipment and facilities supporting the Megawatt Charging Standard (MCS) are gradually being introduced after many years in development. The introduction of these stations, alongside their enhanced charging capabilities for large electric trucks, could potentially negate the advantage that hydrogen vehicles hold in terms of quicker refueling times.
Today, at the Advanced Clean Transportation (ACT) Expo, Honda is unveiling a new initiative involving a hydrogen fuel-cell semi truck, marking the launch of a new venture and highlighting the company’s focus on expanding fuel-cell technology beyond just passenger vehicles.
Just before the weekend it was revealed that final documents for a class-action settlement were filed, potentially awarding Chevy Bolt EV owners up to $1,400 each. This settlement amount is also available to owners who have already had their battery completely replaced.
