After 150 years without much happening around electric vehicles, Tesla set off a spark in 2006 that triggered a chain reaction of rapid growth and change. Last year saw the first full conversion of a gas station into an electric charging station in the U.S. Most of the time, evolution moves slowly. But sometimes it’s lightning-fast.

Conversions are mostly for the Prius, with a few for the Ford Escape/Mercury Mariner hybrid SUVs. At that point, we expect the aftermarket companies prices to have come down sufficiently so that their conversions will be attractive to owners of hundreds of thousands of hybrids already on the road. So far, most start as hybrids.
