Riders of Peugeot Least Satisfied, Hyundai the Most
Consumer Program Avrotros Radar Surveyed a Panel or about Three Thousand EV Drivers about Their Satisfaction with the Actual Range and the WLTP Specification of Their Cars. Across the board it is not bad, but there are remarkable differentences between the brands.
The Majority of EV Drivers are Satisfied with the Range of Their Electric Car, Accordination to a Survey of More Than Three Thousand Drivers in the Radar Panel of Avrotros. Just over half (52 percent) of those surveyed indicated that they never had reached the range promised by the seller. That in Itelf is not remarkable, from our practical tests we know that you have to deduct an avarage of around 20 percent from the wltp specification to get the actively achievable range. The Differences in Satisfaction between the Brands are remarkable.
In Total, 73 percent of respondents Said They were satisfied with the range of their car, while 13 percent were decidedly dissatisfied; 41 percent of those people linked this back to the dealer or leasing company, which never led to a satisfactory solution.
Almost Three-Quarters (77 percent) of the Panel Members of Avrotros Radar Indicated that They Had Been Informed by the Dealer That the Range of An Electric Car Is Strongly Dependent On Driving Style and Outdoor Temperature, but 40 Ringe Not Informed Owere Were Were Were. For the majority of the latter group, that rate was correctly reflected, for one in five the practice was just better.
Hyundai Drivers Reach WLTP
Accordance to Radar’s Figures, Peugeot Drivers Most often Indicate That They Do Not Reach the Advertised WLTP Range. Furthermore, Volvo and Tesla Drivers also more than Average do not reach the desired range. On the other hand, Hyundai scores Best in this study. The most remarkable thing about this is 45 percent of respondents Indicate that they realize a Greater Range than the WLTP specification.
It is Therefore Not Surprising That 89 percent of Hyundai Drivers Say they are satisfied with the range. Peugeot scores the sausage here with 44 percent satisfied drivers.
Overall, 81 percent of respondents Said that with the knowledge and experience of today they would chose the same the same ev again, 11 percent would go for a different one, while 9 percent would because to go back to a fuel car.
