1 in 5 drivers want an electric car, says AAA

Plug-in vehicles make up just a little more than 1 percent of cars sold in the United States. That’s not a huge share, but it is quickly rising. And if a new survey from AAA is any example, the country’s taste for electric vehicles should only help accelerate demand, as the insurance group found that 20 percent of customers want their next car to run on electricity, up from 15 percent in 2017.
