Americans want EVs, but can infrastructure keep up?

We’re talking about electric vehicles. 

But new polling from Gallup suggests fewer Americans are interested in EVs now than two years ago.  In 2023, 59% of those polled were open to buying an EV. That’s now dropped to 51%. 

Still, EV sales continue to rise. And that’s despite the Trump administration’s tariffs and potential repeal of EV tax credits. The administration also halted a program aiming to build a network of EV chargers. But some states are suing to restore the funding.

What’s the future of EVs in the U.S.? Does buying one make sense where you live?
