L.A. to launch electric carsharing program demo

June 9, 2017

Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti announced the opening of a demonstration station to kick off the city’s BlueLA Electric Car Sharing Program, the nation’s largest EV car sharing program for disadvantaged communities. Blue Solutions, a division of the Bollore group of France, and the Los Angeles Department of Transportation (LADOT), have partnered to deploy 100 electric cars and 200 EV chargers in the streets of L.A. starting this year.

The demonstration station opening will be used for community outreach, drive, and ride events, and raising awareness about electric vehicles, until the full service is available for public use later in the year.
