This weekend, hundreds of thousands of people attended the Houston Auto Show to see the latest that the automakers have to offer. While the main focus of this year’s auto show was still traditional gas-burning vehicles, attendees were able to test drive plug-in electric models like the 2019 Bolt EV, the Honda Clarity plug-in hybrid, and Nissan’s LEAF. Debuting for the first time were Audi’s e-tron, BMW’s i8 electric convertible, and the Hyundai Ioniq plug-in hybrid. Hyundai’s Kona EV, Jaguar’s all-electric I-PACE and the Range Rover plug-in hybrid were also on display. These cleaner, electric, zero-emission vehicles are the future of transportation; that is they must be if we hope to have a livable climate.
