The U.S. Postal Service is continuing on its quest to convert some of its 142,000 vehicles to electric models with a partnership with Bright Automotive, the manufacturer of the upcoming IDEA plug-in hybrid for commercial and government fleets . The auto startup will retrofit a standard USPS vehicle with an electric drivetrain and send out it out on the streets of Washington, D.C. for a year of testing. If all goes well, the Postal Service might have Bright convert even more of its vehicles to all-electric models.
