It’s time to update our research on what electric car drivers experience, want, and require in their electric vehicles (EVs). We also want to roll in the views of potential electric car drivers this time.
It was with a great degree of curiosity that we explored EV charging experiences and needs by type of EV and region for our latest EV report. What’s the story for Tesla drivers, non-Tesla fully electric car drivers, and plug-in hybrid drivers? What’s the story for Americans vs Europeans? We already covered the desire and demand for fast charging and superfast charging in a previous section, but we dive much more into other charging matters here. Jump down below the line for the results.
People don’t like to be the reason something bad happens. They lose even more interest if it’s something really bad, perhaps even criminally bad.
With that in mind, it’s no surprise that some drivers have tried to blame their accidents on Tesla Autopilot. There were a couple of incidents (maybe more) where people seemed to accidentally hit “drive” instead of “reverse” or “brake,” then took out part of a wall and crashed their Tesla as a result, and then blamed the whole thing on Autopilot.
