Electric Vehicles

Michigan is actively expanding electric vehicle infrastructure and promoting the transition to electric transportation, but the presence of charging stations doesn’t necessarily mean all residents can benefit equally from electric vehicles, say researchers from Michigan Tech and University of Wisconsin.

The Trump administration releases tens of millions in funding that will allow Michigan to expand its electric vehicle charging network.

Gotion is suing Green Charter Township alleging the board violated a contract and their rights as a company.

U.S. Reps. Debbie Dingell (D-Ann Arbor) and John Moolenaar (R-Caledonia) introduced legislation into the U.S. House of Representatives on Monday to prohibit the importation, manufacture and sale of connected vehicles, software, and hardware linked to China.

Gotion, a Chinese-owned advanced battery manufacturing company, says it won't pay back a $23.7 million grant from the state of Michigan, after its project to build a massive EV battery plant in Mecosta County failed.

New U-M survey finds only about 5% of rural Michigan residents say they would choose an electric vehicle as their next car.

In a new legal filling, China-based company Gotion is seeking fiscal damages from Green Chart Township. They argue the township’s opposition to the plant constituted a contract breach and has rendered the plant “no longer viable.”

The Michigan Economic Development Corporation said in a letter made public on Thursday that the Chinese company Gotion Inc. has not met its contractual obligations.

WDET caught up with the junior senator at the 2025 Mackinac Policy Conference to talk about proposed cuts to Medicaid, supporting EV manufacturing and more.

A Michigan State University professor says the slowdown is in response to a combination of softening sale performances and the incoming Trump administration.
