The electric vehicle (EV) revolution will see hundreds of thousands of electric vehicles on roadways within five years. This will have obvious impacts on the automotive industry, utilities and consumers, but deeper analysis reveals trends that will reshape the way vehicles are built and used. By looking beyond the market data, we have identified 10 key trends to watch out for as the EV market takes shape.
Pike Research’s “10 Predictions for 2010″ white paper explores hot topics including the true cost of owning an EV versus a gasoline vehicle, key challenges facing OEMs as they prepare for the mainstream launch of PHEVs, the role of Lithium Ion batteries, and utility grid infrastructure upgrades that will be required to support the adoption of EVs. Conclusions and predictions in this paper are drawn from our in-depth coverage of the Clean Transportation industry, and market forecasts are included for key sectors.
