*Keen electric car adopters experience these hurdles at the dealership*
Apart from the direct-to-consumer model that has been adopted by Tesla TSLA, electric car buyers looking to adopt the efficient technology still have to face the relic that those buying gas-powered cars still have to deal with: the dreaded dealership. Besides the shady sales tactics, haggling and other nonsense that buyers come to expect from a big dealership, J.D. Power found that there is another set of critical problems that electric car buyers have to face when buying their pride and joys. Related: One of Tesla's most prominent competitors has no plans to engage in Elon Musk's vicious price war In its 2023 U.S. Sales Satisfaction Index study, J.D. Power found some unfortunate information that sets electric vehicles apart from their gas-powered brethren at the dealers. According to their data, people who bought normal gas powered cars reported that they were much more satisfied with the buying experience than those who bought an electric vehicle. A BMW iX at a charging station. NurPhoto/Getty Images J.D. Power gives scores in customer satisfaction up to 1,000 points, and those who bought gas-powered cars in the consumer-priced "mass market" segment rated their experiences with a score of 848. In comparison, a similar "mass-market" buyer looking for an electric car rated their experience at just 790, a gap of 58 points. This gap is also present in dealers that sell luxury and "premium" cars, with the regular posh cars getting a score of 866, and EVs at just 831; a gap of 35 points. According to the study, EV buyers found that the overall buying experience is generally less satisfying compared to that of regular gas cars. Notably, they found that salespeople on showroom floors tended to lack knowledge about EVs, which resulted in lower satisfaction among electric buyers than gas car buyers. Electric vehicles (EV) for sale at a Kia dealership. Bloomberg/Getty Images J.D. Power also found that buyers were left in the dark when it came to critical information about seemingly normal parts of EV ownership. Over 30% of electric car buyers said that they would like additional information on their vehicle's maintenance schedule, while 7% said they'd like additional assistance on setting up home charging. Additionally, and possibly most critically, 11% of EV buyers asked by J.D. Power said they would like further explanation on how to charge their vehicle at home or elsewhere. “Buyers of ICE vehicles don’t need to be taught how to put fuel in the gas tank,” J.D. Power automotive retail vice president Chris Sutton said. “But salespeople need to show EV buyers how to charge their vehicles at home and what’s involved in using a public charging station.” More Business of EVs:A full list of EVs and hybrids that qualify for federal tax creditsHere’s why EV experts are flaming Joe Biden’s car policyThe EV industry is facing an unusual new problem These results are similar to the gaps in satisfaction recorded in J.D. Power's report last year, where the gaps between gas and EVs were 56 points with "mass market" cars and 33 points for "premium" cars. “Explaining how to charge the vehicle should be a mandatory part of every EV delivery,” Sutton said last year. “Salespeople don’t need to show gas powered vehicle buyers how to fill their tank, but they do need to show EV buyers how to charge their vehicle.” Get exclusive access to portfolio managers and their proven investing strategies with Real Money Pro.

*A key Volkswagen executive laid out a game plan to beat Tesla*
As Tesla TSLA gears up to potentially make a €25,000 (about $27,000) electric car at its Berlin gigafactory, industry leaders and contemporary car manufacturers have started to release cars on their own. Volkswagen VLKAF for instance, has gone back to the German meaning of its name, revealing plans for its own €25,000 electric car in March ahead of the reveal of a production version in 2025. Related: Tesla bulls say electric vehicle demand is soaring. Here's what's really happening With the American market being key to VW's success, the German marque has some plans to expand its electric presence, even in the face of electric car trends slowing down. At a conference held by Reuters in Detroit, VW Group of America senior vice president and head of strategy Reinhard Fischer said that VW is aiming to bring an electric vehicle for under $35,000 to the U.S. market in 3-4 years. “We are not scaling back plans for EVs in the U.S. market,” Fischer said. The plan for this specific U.S.-market focused EV is a very strategized one. According to Fischer, this specific vehicle will be produced in either the United States or in Mexico. Currently, Volkswagen operates plants in Puebla, Mexico, and in Chattanooga, Tenn., where it currently builds the ID.4 electric crossover. A VW ID.4 in the light tunnel at Volkswagen's plant. picture alliance/Getty Images Additionally, VW plans to open a 1,100 acre plant outside Columbia, S.C for its electric Scout brand. The German automaker's SVP also said that the company is also looking to assemble this EV's batteries in North America. VW is in the process to build a battery factory in St. Thomas, Ontario, Canada with PowerCo SE, which plans to break ground in 2024 and be operational in 2027.

Currently, Volkswagen's most inexpensive EV offering is the Chattanooga-built ID.4 crossover SUV, which starts at $38,995 before incentives.

At a conference held by Reuters in Detroit, VW Group of America senior vice president and head of strategy Reinhard Fischer said that VW is aiming to bring an electric vehicle for under $35,000 to the U.S. market in 3-4 years. “We are not scaling back plans for EVs in the U.S. market,” Fischer said. The plan for this specific U.S.-market focused EV is a very strategized one. According to Fischer, this specific vehicle will be produced in either the United States or in Mexico. Currently, Volkswagen operates plants in Puebla, Mexico, and in Chattanooga, Tenn., where it currently builds the ID.4 electric crossover.

The German automaker's SVP also said that the company is also looking to assemble this EV's batteries in North America. VW is in the process to build a battery factory in St. Thomas, Ontario, Canada with PowerCo SE, which plans to break ground in 2024 and be operational in 2027.
