Ford conducted a global survey that revealed a lot of people are still misinformed about electric cars and what they're capable of. I shouldn't be too surprised because EVs are still new to a lot of people, but the numbers are staggering.
According to the survey:
90% of Americans and European didn't think quick acceleration is a benefit associated with electric cars.
80% of Americans said they wouldn't choose an electric car for extreme hot or cold temperatures.
65% wouldn't choose one for all-wheel drive needs.
67 percent think that EVs can't tow to save their life.
42 percent of Americans believe electric cars, in spite of their name, still need to be filled up with gasoline to run.
