ATLANTA, Jan. 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Cox Automotive presented its annual Barbara Cox Woman of the Year Award to Corina Diehl, owner and president of Diehl Automotive, a five-dealership group headquartered in Butler, Pa.

<a href="https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/1425802/Woman_of_the_Year_Award.html" target="_blank"…

Cox Automotive presents Corina Diehl, owner and president of Diehl Automotive, Barbara Cox Woman of the Year Award.

Named after Barbara Cox, the late co-owner of Cox Enterprises and daughter of the company’s founder, this honor is awarded to women who demonstrate business leadership and community advocacy, and a commitment to advancing the automotive industry. The winner was announced by Cox Automotive President Steve Rowley during the first-ever Cox Automotive Experience, a 10-day virtual event that started today.

«With this award, we affirm the importance of inclusion, diversity and equity at Cox Automotive,» said Rowley. «We choose one of our clients to receive this award that reminds us of Barbara Cox and carries those same characteristics – a strong, skilled and determined woman who cares about people, her business and her community. It is my honor to recognize Corina Diehl as the 2021 Barbara Cox Woman of the Year.»

Diehl is a pioneer in the auto industry having started her own auto exporting company in the early 1990s. After Diehl and her husband Matt bought their first dealership with a partner in 1995, the Diehls took sole ownership of that dealership and created Diehl Automotive in 2002. Shortly after purchasing the dealership, Diehl’s husband passed away suddenly, and she became sole owner and president of Diehl Automotive. Instead of giving up on their dream, Diehl drew on her experience working side-by-side with her husband in the dealership and took over the operations and turned Diehl Automotive into a trendsetter and one of the top-performing stores in Western Pennsylvania. She subsequently purchased other stores in Pennsylvania including Diehl of Robinson in Pittsburgh, CarRight Automotive in Moon Township, Diehl Volkswagen in Butler and Diehl of Grove City.

«What an honor and how humbling to receive the Barbara Cox Woman of the Year Award,» said Diehl after receiving the award. «The fact that Barbara Cox was such as amazing woman and leader in our industry … for me to receive this award is truly humbling and such an honor in our space. The fact that a young woman is getting a scholarship through Northwood University and promoting women in this industry, which is what Barbara Cox did. I’m so honored and can’t thank you enough.»

Diehl is a strong supporter of the «successful community = successful business» theory, and Diehl Automotive supports numerous community giving projects throughout Western Pennsylvania, including sponsoring the nationally recognized Bantam Jeep Festival held annually in Butler, Pa. and the First Niagara Pavilion, a large concert amphitheater. Diehl Automotive also gives donations to Karns City High School and its athletic departments and purchased the school a new scoreboard. Other community projects include giving tens of thousands of dollars for breast cancer awareness and research each October and raising thousands of dollars for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation. In addition to many other events, the dealership group sponsors «A Night to Remember,» an annual formal event for special needs children and young adults.

In addition to presenting the award to Diehl, Cox Automotive will present on behalf of the honoree a $10,000 Barbara Cox Memorial Scholarship to Angelena Brindley, a Northwood University sophomore studying automotive aftermarket.

Southwest Airlines Announces Revised Policies For Emotional Support And Trained Service Animals

DALLAS, Jan. 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Southwest Airlines Co. (NYSE: LUV) today announced that, consistent with new regulations from the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT), the carrier is making changes to its policies regarding trained service animals and emotional support animals. Effective March 1, 2021, the airline will accept only trained service dogs for travel and will no longer transport emotional support animals.

With this revision, Southwest Airlines® will only allow service dogs that are individually trained to do work or perform tasks for the benefit of a qualified individual with a disability to travel with the Customer. The types of disability include a physical, sensory, psychiatric, intellectual, or other mental disability and only dogs will be accepted (including those for psychiatric service) — no other species will be accepted as a trained service animal.

«We applaud the Department of Transportation’s recent ruling that allows us to make these important changes to address numerous concerns raised by the public and airline employees regarding the transport of untrained animals in the cabins of aircraft,» said Steve Goldberg, Senior Vice President, Operations and Hospitality. «Southwest Airlines continues to support the ability of qualified individuals with a disability to bring trained service dogs for travel and remains committed to providing a positive and accessible travel experience for all of our Customers with disabilities.»

Customers should complete the form, which will be available both on the airline’s website and at airport locations, after booking their travel.

Additionally, Southwest will no longer accept emotional support animals for travel effective on March 1, 2021. Customers may still travel with some animals as part of the airline’s existing pets program for a charge; however, the animals must meet all applicable requirements regarding in-cabin stowage and species (dogs and cats only).

Customers who hold existing reservations for travel with unaccepted animals after Feb. 28, 2021 may contact Southwest for more information and assistance. Southwest’s policies for traveling with trained service animals can be reviewed at Southwest.com.

ElectReon Presents World’s First Dynamic Wireless Charging of a Long-Haul Electric Truck while Driving on a Public Road

BEIT YANAI, Israel, Jan. 25, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — ElectReon (TASE: ELWS), developing and implementing Wireless Electric Road Systems that wirelessly charges commercial and passenger electric vehicles while driving, has completed the deployment of 1.65 km of a dynamic wireless charging system on a public road in Gotland, Sweden, which is the largest deployment of its kind in the world.

<div class="PRN_ImbeddedAssetReference"…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L2S2qzGkcis&feature=youtu.be

The fully electric long-haul truck was charged by the road while driving at various speeds of up to 60 km/h on a 200-meter electric road segment, with an average transfer rate of 70 kW from the road to the receivers and into the truck’s battery. The system reached stable operation with consistent results, and testing confirmed that snow and ice do not affect the wireless charging capabilities. The Company proved the robustness of its proprietary cloud-based software by remotely operating, monitoring, and testing the system from the Company’s headquarters in Israel.

In the coming months, following the successful testing on the 200-meter section and given additional approvals from relevant agencies, the Company expects to start operation of the entire road and simultaneously charge an electric bus on the same electric road. The wireless charging system will be further calibrated to enable the increase of power and a local truck operator will regularly operate the truck in order to conduct further tests.

The wireless charging of the electric truck on a public road is a significant milestone in the commercialization of the wireless electric road technology developed by ElectReon. This is also a significant milestone towards meeting the preliminary requirements for applying for the large-scale pilot of the construction of a wireless Electric Road planned by the Swedish Road Administration (Trafikverket) of approximately 30 kilometers designed for dynamic charging of electric trucks while driving.

In Tel Aviv, the Company completed the deployment of 700 meters of dynamic charging segments on a road in Ramat Aviv and a wireless charging station at the Tel-Aviv University train station bus terminal. This represents a significant achievement as the Company deployed the segments in a short time frame, minimizing interruption to the public and illustrating the suitability of its technology for commercial-scale deployment in public roads. The Company is currently waiting for the electric grid connection, expected in the coming weeks, in order to begin road-charging the electric bus, while conducting further tests.

Oren Ezer, CEO of ElectReon Wireless:

«Charging a long-haul truck while driving on an electric road that is open to the public is an exceptional technological achievement coming after years of intense development. The achievement brings us closer to our goal of revolutionizing the field of electric vehicle charging and we thank the strong support from Trafikverket that enabled this to take place in Sweden. Soon we expect to test our urban application when an electric bus will start testing in our pilot project in Tel Aviv.»

Truck driver Emelie Gardell from the truck operator Gotlands bilfrakt:

«I was very surprised at how peaceful and quiet it was to drive the electric truck while it was driving and charging from the road. It did not interfere with my driving experience at all and I am happy to know we are reducing transport emissions and proud to drive the future.»

About ElectReon
