The key findings of the EVs and Sustainability edition of this year’s Mobility Monitor are:

EV infrastructure urgently needed for the future

While the majority of people surveyed view electric vehicles favourably, practical concerns surrounding infrastructure present an active barrier to entry. Specifically:

Tex Gunning, CEO of LeasePlan, said: ”Our 2019 Mobility Monitor shows that public demand for zero-emission mobility far outpaces currently available EV infrastructure. We need to fix this now. The European Commission, together with national governments and local authorities, must step up and act on citizen demand for zero-emission mobility by investing in a comprehensive, pan-European charging infrastructure. Only through collective, decisive and timely action will we be able to win the fight against climate change, and improve air quality in our towns and cities.”

The first edition of this year’s Mobility Monitor, which focuses on EVs and Sustainability, can be downloaded here.
