Untangling the Electric Car Charging Dilemma: Opacity, Pricing, and Accessibility Frustrations Revealed

2023-08-03 10:26:00

The study conducted by YouGov for Monta, a Danish start-up specializing in the management of charging stations, shows that 54% of buyers today regret having opted for an electric car due to the increase in the cost of electricity. . On the other hand, the survey carried out among a panel of French drivers shows that 62% of them “do not find the market prices unfair”. Which is rather paradoxical.

The public network still in question

In reality, it seems above all to be the opacity around the prices charged and the availability of terminals which frustrates the electric conductors. They regret the lack of harmonization and transparency of prices at charging stations, the driver only knowing the final amount at the end of charging. The offer is also a source of disappointment, and stems directly from the previous point since it is complicated to compare prices to find the cheapest recharge option. Finally, accessibility is the third stumbling block, with drivers regretting that it is “sometimes difficult to access the most advantageous charging point because you have to download an application, or be a customer of a mobility, or even owning a particular brand of car”.
