Electrifying microtransit is top of mind for us at Via, and we recognize that while these efforts are critical to meeting our collective climate goals, they can also be, well, complicated. What are YOUR biggest questions when it comes to electrifying microtransit services?

• How will I pay for an electric microtransit service or fleet?
• How does electrification affect microtransit service design?
• How can we electrify while meeting other critical goals - e.g., for accessibility?
• How do I select the right vehicles for an electric microtransit service?
