OM DENNE EPISODE
On today's episode of Quick Charge, the audio is sketchy but the math is absolutely rock solid with 94% of current EV owners saying they'll NEVER go back to driving an antiquated gas guzzler. CDK's David Thomas walks us through the findings.
From dealership interactions to daily driving habits, CDK's research taps real EV drivers to uncover how behavior, expectations, and satisfaction vary across different ownership scenarios. With access to thousands of auto deals and an in-depth view of what drives today’s EV buyers, this study can help all EV stakeholders get more insight into what EV buyers value most, and how the auto industry must improve to meet their needs.
