The key to getting the most miles out of each gallon is driving efficiently. That means smooth acceleration, soft braking and slowing down. Cars tend to be the most fuel efficient when driven at about 50 miles per hour.

The completion of winter testing for the VW ID EVERY1 not only signifies progress in getting the vehicle to customers but also triggers a $1 billion investment from Volkswagen Group into Rivian.

On average, fuel prices are up almost a dollar per gallon, or 25 percent, according to AAA. For a nation as addicted to the automotive as we are, that's bad news. Except, of course, for electric vehicles.

"Car-Free Earth Day is a reminder that we only have one planet-and that our streets play a critical role in our fight against climate change," said NYC DOT Commissioner Mike Flynn in a statement.

California has decided that if the U.S. government is going to slash electric-vehicle incentives, it needs to keep the momentum going itself with $200 million in state funds to promote cleaner cars. California Gov. Gavin Newsom's latest proposal reveals a bit more about how exactly it plans to plug the gap. The program's finer details are still hazy. But we know this: The policy would require manufacturers to match the state's contribution dollar-for-dollar, effectively doubling the incentive.

The $5 billion program was passed under the Biden administration as part of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law. It was designed to create a federally funded network of high-speed public fast chargers along America's major travel corridors, helping states lay the groundwork for broader EV adoption in the coming years. But after a slow and controversial start, the NEVI program finally appears to be gaining momentum.

The up-and-coming DC fast charging network backed by several automakers opened its 100th station in the United States, bringing the total number of individual bays to nearly 1,000. That's a big deal for a newcomer that was founded just two years ago and energized its first DC fast chargers in December 2024.
