Honda Bringing Two EV Models To The 2024 lineup

Honda's first electric vehicles for the US are starting to take shape. After a January report naming two EVs coming for America from the Japanese automaker, the Associated Press reported Thursday on remarks from an executive confirming the plans. Dave Gardner, Honda America's sales boss, said confirmed details from the past report saying one EV will be for Honda, and the other will be for Acura.

He further confirmed these two EVs will roll on General Motors' EV architecture and should launch for 2024. Honda confirmed the information with Roadshow, which lines up pretty squarely with the report a couple months ago.

T-Mobile will start sharing your info with advertisers by default

The new privacy policy goes into effect next month

T-Mobile is starting a new program that collects and shares data with advertisers in order to show you ads more relevant to your interests. Customers will be included by default, but will be allowed to opt out. The carrier announced the change in a privacy policy update last month, and it was spotted by the Wall Street Journal on Tuesday.

The new policy will affect both T-Mobile and Sprint customers, since the companies merged last year, and will allow the carrier to share info like your browsing data and the apps you use. The policy will go into effect on April 26. The company clarified that the info it collects won't be tied to your name, but it will link to a unique mobile advertising identifier.

FedEx Trucks to be All Electric by 2040

FedEx will replace its current delivery trucks with electric models until its entire fleet is made up of zero—emission vehicles by 2040. The company is making the transition as a way to help it achieve its goal to reach carbon neutral status in the same year. In its announcement, FedEx says its will slowly phase out its existing parcel delivery trucks and that 50 percent of its global vehicle purchases will be electric by 2025. All its vehicle purchases will be EVs by 2030, and it's aiming to retire its gas-powered trucks completely 10 years after that.

United Airlines is prepping for another year of aggressive domestic capacity growth in 2019, hot on the heels of its successful expansion this year. The Star Alliance carrier loaded the latest network additions from its Chicago O'Hare, Denver, Los Angeles, Newark, San Francisco and Washington Dulles hubs over the weekend, part of a strategy to recapture its "natural share" of the US market by growing 4-6% annually through 2020.

“With more than 40 new domestic routes added this year, we remain committed to expanding our network to offer customers even more choices in their travel destinations,” says Ankit Gupta, vice-president of domestic network planning at United. “The expansion to Hilton Head Island from three of our hub cities and the introduction of New York’s only nonstop service to… Pensacola, are just some of the ways we are responding to customer interest and demand.”

Skywest Plans on Flight a Large Number of 50 Passenger Jets, into the Future.

Skywest Plans on Flight a Large Number of 50 Passenger Jets, into the Future.

“We see a tremendous opportunity long-term to have that aircraft serve small communities,” Childs told the International Aviation Forecast Conference in Denver Aug. 20. “We have not [parked our smallest RJs], and we likely will not.”

Utah-based SkyWest Inc., which operates SkyWest Airlines and ExpressJet Airlines—both regional feeders for mainline carriers—had a 583-aircraft fleet as of June 30. More than half—298—were either Bombardier CRJ200s or Embraer ERJ135/145s.

It plans to end the year with 585 aircraft, continuing a trend of right-sizing its fleet so it is large enough to capitalize on opportunities, but small enough to be somewhat isolated from demand fluctuations.

Since ending 2014 with 717 aircraft, SkyWest steadily has reduced its fleet, ending each year with fewer aircraft than it had at the start. It also has adjusted its ratio of smaller aircraft to dual-class models from a 70/30 split in 2014—including some turboprops—to the 51/49 split projected for year-end 2018.
