Are multi-car households better suited for battery electric vehicles? Driving patterns and economics in Sweden and Germany (2016, background): “The variation in distances travelled by one individual on different days of the year is important for the utility of BEVs (Greene, 1985; Pearre et al., 2011).”
Fear and loathing of electric vehicles: The reactionary rhetoric of range anxiety (2019, background): “found that an EV could fit 95% of consumer’s driving needs if people were willing to alter their behavior no more than 10 days a year (15).”
Hybrid, Plug-in Hybrid, or Electric - What Do Car Buyers Want? (2013, methodology): “Pearre et al. (2011) used driving diary data to conclude that a 160 km range EV (with home charging only) could meet the travel needs of 17 to 32 percent of U.S. drivers, depending on drivers’ willingness to change their travel behavior such as redistributing trips among household drivers and…”
What drives range preferences in electric vehicle users (2013, background): “…is consistently raised in conjunction with efforts to develop sustainable and marketable EVs, and has yielded substantially disparate answers: Evidence suggests that range needs of a sizeable share of the current car fleet could be covered with 100-mile range per charge (Pearre et al., 2011).”
Does driving range of electric vehicles influence electric vehicle adoption (2017, background): “As [54] identified, the vast majority of daily average mileage driven by gasoline vehicle users for a 50-day experiment in the U.”
