Last week we heard from George Haddad, president of the Haddad Automotive Group, who spoke about the emergence of electric vehicles.  While the country may have a fully electric goal by 2030, for the short term there is no one solution that fits all. There are different options moving toward that goal, including hybrid, plug-in hybrid and hydrogen. George emphasized the need for consumer choice among these options. He provided a number of future predictions, noted maintenance issues, the unknowns regarding battery life expectancy, and the issue of vehicle weight as pertains to tire life and road stress.
