One of the top hurdles to EV adoption in the US is the often touted issue that EVs simply cost more than similar gas-powered vehicles. But assuming you can get your hands on one, roughly two-dozen BEVs and PHEVs available for sale in the US this summer have a base manufacturer’s suggested retail price (MSRP) of less than $45,000.
An estimated 27 million households living in single-family homes in the US cannot pull into their garage and plug in and charge an electric vehicle. Instead they will have to run the charging cable or extension cord (not advised) from inside the garage, install a charger outside the garage, somehow charge from the street, rely on public charging, or utilize a mobile charging service (charging as a service).
A new study on the reliability of DC fast chargers in the San Francisco Bay Area provides some much needed data and independent analysis to help hold EV charging networks accountable to a higher level of charging customer experience.
Beyond the use of confusing, technical and jargony terms and acronyms, a foundational communications problem with EV charging is that the industry doesn’t even agree on what the most basic of terms — EV “charging station” — actually refers to.
2021 was a huge year for overall electric vehicle sales in the US, but only California (13.4%) and the District of Columbia (11.2%) had a combined BEV and PHEV sales share of at least 10%.
2021 PHEV sales increased YOY 156%, regular hybrids 95%, and BEVs 89%. PHEV’s share of total EV sales in 2021 increased to 26.9% from 21.3% in 2020, while BEVs share of EV sales declined to 73.1% from 78.7%.
PHEVs are either loved and seen as part of the solution in the transition to vehicles with zero tailpipe emissions, or derided by BEV purists. But PHEVs are a great solution for many, the problem with them in the US is hour are EV incentives are structured. This article outlines some potential fixes.
In a recent EVAdoption analysis of 14 of the most popular travel and hotel booking sites, we found that 9 of them (64%) included some variation of “EV charging station” as an option in their amenity search filter. Of the 5 travel sites that did not include an EV charger filter, 3 were the popular Hotwire, Priceline, and Trivago.
Analysis of the Electrify America Q3 2021 Report to California Air Resources Board reveals an average utilization rate of their DC fast charger highway corridor and urban locations of 4.8%. This is just one of the findings and data points from the just released EVAdoption report, California EV Charging Network Utilization.
Only available in the US beginning in Q2 of 2021, the hot-selling Jeep Wrangler 4xe plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) was apparently the top-selling PHEV
