All you Tesla owners must feel pretty good about yourselves with gas prices so high. So will the rest of us follow suit?
A new poll asked 10,000 Americans what they’d buy if they were car-shopping today. And over half said a hybrid, or a fully electric car.
37% would still go for a gas-powered engine . . . 24% would buy a hybrid . . . and 21% would buy an electric car. Another 13% weren’t sure, and 5% said “none of the above.” (What’s the other option? Foot-powered like the “Flintstones”?)
Young people are more likely to want to make the switch. Only 22% of people under 30 would buy a gas car, compared to 44% of seniors.
