Tuesday, July 2, 2024 Electric vehicles (EVs) are gaining traction, and the travel industry is taking notice. In a recent partnership, Hyundai Motor Company and Hilton Grand Vacations APAC & Hawaii (HGV) aim to elevate the travel experience for eco-conscious tourists by offering electric vehicle options at popular destinations. The collaboration sets its initial sights on Hawaii, a premier tourist destination known for its commitment to environmental sustainability.
