A new consumer survey from AAA has found that nearly 25 percent of Americans would be likely to buy an electric vehicle as their next car, and they’re citing gas prices as the reason why.
The survey, conducted in February of this year, asked more than 1,000 Americans over the age of 18 about their views on electric vehicles. The organization said that as gas prices continue to stay high, it anticipated that more Americans would convert to electric vehicles. According to the survey, 77 percent of those who said their next car would be electric cited saving on fuel costs as a top reason for their interest.
