F-150 Lightning, Mustang Mach-E, and the Skunkworks platform — Dearborn’s electric bet, tracked.
Washington state’s Senate Transportation Committee has scheduled an executive session on SB 6354 for February 27 — a bill that would open the state’s auto market to direct sales by Rivian, Lucid, and other battery electric vehicle manufacturers that have never operated through a franchised dealer network. If it clears committee, passes the full Senate,…
