One thought on “Indiana goes on offense to capture evolution of electric-vehicle industry”

  1. Indiana should be the first state to figure a road use tax for all EV vehicles. They cause as much, or more damage to the roads as gas tax paying vehicles. Say .20 every 60 miles driven. Or something like that. EVs paying for road use is long over due!
