Many electric vehicle owners are in a state of desperation due to charging issues and concerns about the range of their vehicles, as electric cars are not yet competitive with gas-powered vehicles. Owners like them often find out the hard way what not to do anything. They've had enough and are now converting back to gas-powered autos. The reasons are various, so let's check some of them.
Number seven: Electric vehicles are yet supplementary.
There was tremendous expansion in the electric vehicle market in 2021 and 2022. It wasn't just an era of early adopters; it was a moment when wealthy households were trying out new things. It was a moment when they aspired to be in vogue. However, at what point did these EV owners consider giving up their gas-powered vehicles? No, that's not correct. They bought electric vehicles for fun rather than out of necessity, and they never went electric entirely. Their electric cars, on the other hand, have traditionally been seen as supplementary transportation in such homes. The fact that electric automobiles are typically seen as a secondary or even tertiary mode of transportation suggests that they are primarily used for local trips. For longer and more demanding excursions, internal combustion engines remained dominant. Simply told, these owners didn't replace anything; no, they just added another car to their garage, which happens to use electricity as a power source. They never had a serious commitment to transition to the so-called green energy. So in most situations, they're not interested in getting another one. They've obtained their EVs, tried out new technologies, and decided that they would prefer stick to more convenient IC cars. With that in mind, it doesn't surprise that just 37% of Mustang Mach-E owners acquired another EV. On the other hand, nearly half of them acquired another internal combustion vehicle. Things aren't much different with other car makers and models, except for Tesla, which still has a high percentage of loyal customers, most likely because the vast majority of zero-emissions enthusiasts choose this brand, while others are mostly chosen by customers who put convenience and practicality in focus.
