The Electrification Roadmap calls for 75% of light-duty VMT in the US to be electric by 2040. Achieving this will require a minimum of 25% of new light-duty vehicles purchased in the US to be grid-enabled vehicles (GEV) by 2020. As a result, oil consumption in the light-duty fleet would be reduced to just 2.0 Click to enlarge.
