A recent Tata Consultancy Services (TCS) Future-Ready eMobility Study 2025 reveals that 64% of consumers are likely to consider electric vehicles (EVs) for their next purchase. The global study, which surveyed over 1,300 respondents from North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific, highlights key factors such as sustainability and lower operational costs driving EV adoption.
While 60% of consumers cite charging infrastructure as a significant challenge, 56% are willing to pay up to $40K for an EV. Environmental sustainability is a major motivator, although 48% of EV influencers believe EVs may not reduce carbon output as expected. For commercial fleets, 53% point to cost reduction as a primary reason for EV adoption.
Despite strong consumer interest, challenges remain. 74% of EV manufacturers identify charging infrastructure as the biggest hurdle, and 55% are investing in advanced battery technology. A majority of manufacturers (90%) believe that improvements in battery technology will significantly improve EV range and charging speed.
Key survey findings include:
- 74% of manufacturers see charging infrastructure as a key barrier.
- 63% of influencers focus on achieving net-zero goals and reducing carbon footprint.
- 72% of US consumers are likely to buy an EV next, compared to just 31% in Japan.
