The usual policy levers are not engaging consumers in the transition to electric vehicles: a case of Sacramento, California
TL;DR: Hardman et al. as mentioned in this paper investigated whether the population of all vehicle owning households has already considered purchasing a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) or battery electric vehicle (BEV) and found that even in the city where zero emission vehicle (ZEV) policy originates (Sacramento, California) few consumers are engaged with PEVs, few have considered purchasing one, many cannot name a single BEV or PHEV presently for sale, and many are not aware of incentives to buy or advertising of them.
