Description

This week the EPA released new rules for vehicle emissions, which will push the auto industry to speed up the transition to electric vehicles. It's expected that electric vehicles will make up over 50% of new cars by 2032.

We asked The Sunday Story listeners to share their questions about EVs and the response was overwhelming.
