Toyota Tacoma hybrid, Chevy Silverado EV 450 miles, Ziggy at DFW: Automotive News Today
Chevy’s Silverado EV will come with an EPA range rating of up to 450 miles. Charging the robot is being tested in Texas. And the Toyota Tacoma 2024 uses a hybrid — at least for some models. This and more, at Green Car Reports.
The Toyota Tacoma 2024 pickup truck title hybrid model lineup revealed Thursday night. But like Toyota’s larger Tundra pickups, the hybrids prioritize towing, towing, and displacing larger engines over top mpg. And despite the rumors and what Toyota’s concept cars may suggest, there’s no sign of the Tacoma EV yet.
The Ziggy robot charger will be tested soon in an airport parking lot, at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW), as part of a pilot program looking at innovative charging solutions. Will it help increase parking flexibility and skip the “ICEing” movie?
And 2024 Chevy Silverado EV has an official EPA rating of 450 miles, GM reports, with a larger battery pack. The size of that battery pack has yet to be made clear, but the automaker says the paperwork is in place. It’s on track to start shipping in the spring of 2023 as scheduled — that sounds like it right now.
