Because plug-in vehicle technology is still new, and people’s experience at a car dealership influences their decision, the dismissive attitude of dealers towards EVs poses a major obstacle to their sales and widespread adoption. > Researchers from Aarhus University in Denmark and the University of Sussex in UK visited 82 dealerships across 15 cities in five Nordic countries: Denmark, Finland, Iceland, Norway, and Sweden. They posed as customers genuinely interested in buying an electric car. They quantified their experience and recorded quotes from the salespeople.
