Electric vehicles have many implications for the practical aspects of cost of ownership and environmental benefits. But once you get into one, everything changes.

As the results of JD Power’s US Electric Vehicle Study show, many American consumers still only need to ride an EV.

In a survey released Thursday, the company said that only 11% of people with no personal experience with EVs were “very likely” to consider EVs. For those who were just EV passengers, the “very likely” part doubled to 24%. For those who have driven an EV, it has risen to 34%.

EV sales are the strongest in California, And Power confirmed that EV reviews are still the strongest in the West, with 31% of the region saying they are “very likely” to consider EVs.

Surprisingly, the company also said, “Heavy road trippers, like heavy commuters, are more likely to consider buying an EV than those who don’t use a lot of cars.” Those who spend a lot of time commuting are likely to not only focus on highway EVs, but also see how significant their benefits are.
