The city of Tucson, AZ has significant headway to make in transitioning its fuel-powered cars to electric vehicles in the next 10 years as part of its efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions while realizing long-term cost savings.
The City Council adopted the “Electric Vehicle Readiness Roadmap” in April 2021, which includes the lofty goal of replacing the city’s entire light-duty fleet with electric vehicles, or EVs, by 2030.
Tucson could save $15 million by replacing light-duty cars and trucks with EVs throughout the next decade.
