The survey conducted by the Natural Resources Council of Maine in April 2022 by mail and online found that 98% of EV owners would personally recommend them to their neighbors, in part because EVs are quiet, help them avoid the high price of gas, and are better for Maine’s environment. Seventy-nine percent of those surveyed save $25 or more a month on gas, and 56% save $50 or more.
“We heard directly from Mainers across the state that electric cars are improving their lives by helping them get around more easily for less money,” said“There’s no question as more models come to market and we continue to expand our network of charging stations, more and more Mainers will find electric cars and trucks an attractive and affordable option.”
