A new study by Scott Hardman and Gil Tal at the University of California, Davis has found that discontinuance occurs at a rate of 21% for California plug-in hybrid adopters and 19% for California battery electric vehicle adopters. Hardman and Tal surveyed 4167 plug-in electric vehicle (PEV) owners in California. Of those: 24.3%

A study by researchers at the Institute of Transportation Studies, UC Davis finds that buyers of plug-in vehicles (PEVs) are substantially less satisfied with the dealer purchase experience than buyers of conventional vehicles—with the notable exception of Tesla buyers. In some cases, dealers outright discouraged PEV purchases.

Two recent studies explore different aspects of the use, potential impact and valuation of PHEVs. A study by Jonn Axsen and Ken Kurani from the Institute of Transportation Studies, UC Davis, estimates electricity and gasoline use under three recharging scenarios. the electric range capability—of the PHEV.

described a prototype lithium-ion battery system targeted at a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) application. kWh capacity matches the USABC short-term goal for a 10-mile equivalent electric range PHEV.). The PHEV pack is based on 14 Ah lithium-ion polymer cells, with carbon-coated LiFePO 4 as the cathode material.
