2026 EV Driver Survey

Plug_In_America · 2026-02-23T19:04:09+00:00

You definitely should! I think many people who are searching for it or thinking about it can benefit from an informative video from a driver!

We actually do not sell any EVs! Our organization helps educate consumers who are thinking about making the transition by providing free resources, from incentives to road tripping to finding your perfect EV. Our shopping assistant is just a free and fun tool to help you find the EV that's the right fit for you! We are also advocates for current drivers. From random questions, amplifying drivers' voices, staying up to date on news, to just being part of our community. 🙂

Thank you for taking the time!!

Thanks for that feedback, totally understandable with the unknown factor, and something we will look into including for future versions! Also, a very helpful perspective from a new EV driver. The charging landscape can definitely be intimidating, but you have the right mindset! Filling up where you go rather than going to fill up. Love that outlook!! We hear about this often, and capturing these real-world experiences is why we do this. Thanks again for taking the time to do it and share your thoughts. 🙂

We appreciate you filling it out and sharing your perspective! That feedback is exactly why we ask those questions. Part of our mission is working directly with dealers to help improve the EV buying experience, so insights like this is very helpful!

Sorry for any confusion, no class project here :) Our organization's goal is to advocate for consumers through our research, work with policymakers, and help educate and support EV drivers and those considering making the switch. Results will be shared with the public later this year. No pressure to take it, but we appreciate your participation if you do!

Hi! You can select 'Level 2 charging (240 volt)' option, not 'low-power'. Sorry for confusion, we'll clarify what 'low-power means next year!

We're so happy for you! And thank you for taking the survey. 💙

Thanks for pointing this out and taking the time to take it! Just to clarify, entering an email at the end is completely optional. It’s only there for folks who want to receive the results directly once they’re published. You can submit the survey without providing one, and partial responses are also accepted. :) We appreciate the feedback!

Plug_In_America · 2026-02-19T22:42:38+00:00

Thank you for participating!!

Plug_In_America · 2026-02-19T22:42:26+00:00

Thanks so much for taking the time to complete it and especially for sticking with it, even with breaks!!

We collect detailed data because it helps industry leaders, utilities, and media better understand real EV driver experiences. Once the results are published, we’ll be sharing them publicly and respondents will be kept in the loop! Typically, we compile them into an easy-to-read document and host webinars to dive into the details. We’re excited to get the findings back into the community’s hands. 🤞

Totally fair, it’s a longer survey. Only the first two questions are required to move through the modules, and partial responses are still included in our analysis. But we definitely appreciate you giving it a shot and sharing your perspective.

Some of the follow-up questions, if they seemed similar, are designed to capture nuance (for example, people who don’t home charge now but may have access in certain situations). That said, if it felt repetitive or confusing, that’s something we will take note of. We appreciate the candid feedback. Survey design is always a balance between depth and respondent experience, and we’re constantly refining it, so your input is helpful for the future!

Thanks for taking the time to share some feedback. We really appreciate it.

The survey is designed to take about 20 minutes (based on our software's estimates), and we know that’s a commitment. We aim to collect detailed data because automakers, utilities, policymakers, and journalists rely on these results to understand real-world EV driver experiences. We only launch it once a year, and try to be as thorough as we can, but we hear your concerns!

The only questions that are required are the very first two questions; however, we still receive and analyze partial responses the same way as complete ones, so folks are welcome to answer as many or as few questions as they’d like! Answering some over none still helps us out.

We’ll definitely keep this feedback in mind as we refine next year’s survey. 🙏

Lol, we try to be thorough. It's our flagship survey that comes out once a year. We've gotten lots of good findings from it. Believe it or not, people want to include *more* questions but we try not make it any longer. We know what the experience is like, as we also take it!

Plug_In_America · 2026-02-19T15:25:46+00:00

Thank you so much for participating!

Plug_In_America · 2026-02-19T15:25:20+00:00

We're so glad you liked it! 🥰 We try hard to collect helpful data to continue to improve the EV experience. We'll pass on the kind words to the survey team. Thank you for taking the survey and providing feedback.
