The Oregon Department of Transportation, in conjunction with the Department of Administrative Services and other partners, has introduced plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), garnering up to 100 miles per gallon, or more, to its fleet. ODOT Director Matt Garrett looked over the vehicles soon after they arrived in Salem.
"This is the perfect integration of good environmental, funding and energy use policies," Garrett said, emerging from one of the vehicles after a test drive. "It fits right into our mission."
