D.C. Auto Show Spotlights EV

By Staff Writer January 24, 2022

The Washington, D.C. Auto Show opened its doors Thursday to the media, representatives of the auto industry, and government officials for the official “Public Policy Show.” This year’s theme was: “Highlighting mobility of the past while looking to the future.”

The event kicked off with a keynote speech by White House National Climate Adviser, Gina McCarthy; followed by special announcements focused on the EV market. A highlight of the morning event was three industry reveals: the Toyota bZ4X, the McLaren Artura, and the Karma GS6. Each minute of the programming seemed to provide a timeline of where the mobility industry began and how it continues to shape our future. Whether hybrid-electrics (HEVs), plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) or battery electrics (BEVs), these vehicles are entering the mainstream at an accelerated rate.

The day concluded with an evening sneak preview reception giving guests a close look at the range of new makes, models, and technologies displayed around the exhibit space at the Walter E. Washington Convention Center.
