    George Washington High School is training students to work on electric vehicles in its auto repair course.

    According to a report on CBS News Bay Area, Washington is the only high school in the state to offer an auto shop course, and students there are gaining experience with electric cars as well as traditional gas-powered vehicles.

    Instructor Rich Del Rosso told the news outlet that students “have the opportunity to get into this starting of the electric vehicle phase….”

    Tesla has donated a vehicle to the program, and students are learning how to work on the electric motors. Although electric vehicles need less maintenance, they operate with high voltages.

    I have served as the editorial lead of Construction Equipment magazine and ConstructionEquipment.com since 2001. 

    Our mission is to help managers of heavy equipment and trucks to improve their performance in acquiring and managing their fleets. One way we do that is with our Executive Institute, where experts share information and ideas that will enable equipment managers to accurately manage equipment costs so that they can deliver the optimum financial benefits to their organizations.

    We also have a laser focus on product development, performance, and technology; as well as equipment acquisition, disposal, and maintenance. Our exclusive Field Tests take earthmoving equipment and truck into the field for professional evaluations.
