Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang told Georgetown University students Thursday he would electrify the entire presidential motorcade if elected president.

"If you are president of the United States, will you lead by example and order an electric presidential vehicle?" a student asked Yang at a MSNBC town hall.

The tech entrepreneur, who previously promoted an endorsement by Tesla founder Elon Musk, said he would.

"I'll do better. If I'm president, the entire White House motor pool will be electric," Yang said.

The presidential motorcade often involves limousines and several large SUVs, along with security on motorcycles.
