King County Metro has expanded its vanpool fleet by adding 120 Tesla Model Y vehicles, with plans to transition to an all-electric rideshare fleet by 2030.
The acquisition of 120 Tesla Model Y vehicles for King County Metro cost $6.43 million. This move supports their goal of reducing carbon emissions in transportation.
King County's vanpool program now features almost 10% electric vehicles, including the newly added Model Ys, aligning with an ambitious goal for full electrification.
The 2025 budget indicates a significant reduction in vanpool expenditures to $13.5 million, while projections for 2026-2027 suggest potential growth to $28.7 million.
