Talking Cars Bonus: American Interest and Challenges with Electric Cars
Special guest Chris Harto dives into the findings from a recent Consumer Reports survey
Main theme: On this bonus episode of Talking Cars we welcome Chris Harto, CR’s senior policy analyst for transportation and energy, to discuss the results of our recent survey gauging America’s interest in electric vehicles (EVs).
With so many new EVs in the market and our continued coverage of new EV models on the Talking Car podcast, this gives us a chance to share more of what America is thinking about EVs as a supplement to our own testing and impressions of them. In particular, the survey touches on the level of interest in EVs but also on some of the barriers for purchasing and owning EVs and how current policy and legislation changes may help in overcoming some of those barriers.
