MIT analysis finds current EVs could replace ~90% of personal vehicles now on the road based on driver’s energy consumption

Green Car Congress

AUGUST 15, 2016

Developing the concepts and mathematical models required for a testable, quantitative analysis is helpful in these situations, where so much is at stake. This is an issue where common sense can lead to strongly opposing views. Many seem to feel strongly that the potential is small, and the rest are convinced that is it large.
