Canadian motorists understand proper tire inflation improves fuel economy and optimizes electric vehicle range as they navigate higher cost of living: survey TRAC commissioned the survey to gauge attitudes and knowledge around the impacts of proper tire inflation on both internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles and EVs. Over three quarters (77 per cent) of motorists know that correctly inflated tires improve fuel economy, lessen vehicle emissions, and protect the environment. Sixty-two per cent understand proper tire inflation plays an important role in optimizing EV range. The survey also found that 36 per cent of drivers are now considering an EV on their next purchase. Among drivers aged 18 to 34 the number of motorists considering an EV rises to 48 per cent. The latest Statistics Canada data shows EVs now account for 10.8 per cent of all new motor vehicle registrations. https://lnkd.in/gZdH-tjs
