Vehicle electrification efforts have more recently extended to shared mobility systems like public and school buses and, in New York City, commuter (“dollar”) vans that serve lower-income people and communities. While studies that explore the implementation and effectiveness of public transport and school bus electrification are now emerging, these studies have not extended to the unique commuter vans in New York City, which may also offer broader lessons to other parts of the world. This research focuses on this gap and opportunity using a strong community engagement and co-production approach.
