EV Readiness Index
The largest single shift impacting the entire fleet and mobility industry is the move from internal combustion engines (ICEs) to zero emission electric vehicles (EVs).

This is where things get complicated; the framework and circumstances that facilitate electrification differ significantly from state to state. That’s why this EV Readiness Index was developed. It provides a clear overview, across all 50 states (plus the District of Columbia), of five key factors for electrification: favorable state legislation and incentives, EV penetration,
