January 27, 2022 – As automakers continue to build excitement with new electric vehicle launches, first-time owners who have made the switch to battery electric vehicles are discovering that it is a positive experience, according to the J.D. Power 2022 U.S. Electric Vehicle Experience (EVX) Ownership Study.
“Making the initial leap of faith into owning a BEV is proving to be very satisfying,” said Brent Gruber, senior director of global automotive at J.D. Power. “We know from our research that many consumers have concerns during the purchase consideration process with aspects like battery range and vehicle charging. However, once someone has purchased a BEV, they’re pretty much hooked.”
The U.S. Electric Vehicle Experience (EVX) Ownership Study is driven by a collaboration with PlugShare, the leading EV driver app maker and research firm.
