Actually surprised it's only 1 in 5, because we don't have anything close to a useful charging grid deployed in this country, and it will take some time before we can get one. If PEVs can retain 80% of the people who try them with the current lack of supporting infrastructure, that's a pretty good outcome for PEV manufacturers.
- olliej 6y agoI also wonder how much of it is due to the dearth of decent ranged vehicles - my only option for my daily commute is still a Tesla unless I have guaranteed access to charging, which I don’t. It wouldn’t take too many “well I can’t get home unless I find a place to plug my car in and wait an hour” before I went back to gas
