REE Automotive, an electric-vehicle technology startup, has agreed to go public through a merger with 10X Capital Venture Acquisition Corp., a blank-check company, according to people with knowledge of the matter.

General Motors Co. has set a goal of making the vast majority of the vehicles it produces electric by 2035, and the entire company carbon neutral, including operations, five years after that.

FreeWire Technologies Inc., an electric vehicle charging and power startup, has raised $50 million in a Series C funding round.

Until June last year, Tesla Inc. was the only dedicated electric carmaker based in the U.S. on the stock market. Then special purpose acquisition companies took over Wall Street.

Investors are rewarding U.S. automakers as they embrace electric vehicles to boost growth amid a burgeoning demand for environment-friendly cars.

All General Motors Co. CEO Mary Barra needed to hit a stock record was $27 billion and a bit of braggadocio.

The world spent a record $501.3 billion in 2020 on renewable power, electric vehicles and other technologies to cut the global energy system’s dependence on fossil fuels.

Rivian Automotive Inc., the electric-truck startup backed by Amazon .com Inc. and Ford Motor Co., raised $2.65 billion in new funding from a group of investors led by T. Rowe Price Group Inc.

Wall Street’s obsession with electric vehicles is touching off a new round of public listings and helping clean-tech companies to forge partnerships with powerful allies.

The market for battery-powered delivery vehicles and equipment has so much potential that General Motors is forming a new business unit to serve it.
