Abstract
Electric vehicle (EV) adoption, previously constrained by high cost and technological immaturity, has started exhibiting increasing heterogeneity among the adopters. Understanding the shifting sociodemographic, terrain-based, and charging accessibility attributes is key to expanding EV market penetration. This study analyzes Vermont EV registrations (2017–2023) to assess spatiotemporal changes in adopter characteristics, including political attitudes, terrain-based factors, and charging access. Results will reveal evolving adoption patterns, informing targeted policy interventions to accelerate Vermont’s zero-emission vehicle (ZEV) goals. By identifying barriers, this research supports the strategic future of EV adoption.
