"More people believe misinformation about electric vehicles than disagree with
it and even EV owners tend to believe the myths, our new research shows.
We investigated the prevalence of misinformation about EVs in four countries –
Australia, the United States, Germany and Austria. Unfortunately, we found
substantial agreement with misinformation across all countries.
People who endorsed false claims about EVs were, not surprisingly,
significantly less likely to consider buying one.
Electric vehicles are vital in the fight against climate change. But pervasive
misinformation is a significant challenge to the technology’s uptake and has
serious implications for the shift away from fossil fuels."
