Assumption in Electric Vehicle Ownership Satisfaction

Very Hard Assumption Identify Assumptions

The manufacturer of a new electric vehicle (EV) claims, "Our electric car model has a range of 500 miles on a single charge. Therefore, consumers who purchase our EV will not need to charge it frequently, leading to increased satisfaction from ownership." This conclusion depends on the assumption that:

Consumers will generally drive their cars for long distances without needing to stop for charging.

Most trips made by consumers in their cars are shorter than 500 miles.

The charging infrastructure in most urban areas supports rapid charging opportunities.

Customers will choose to drive fewer miles than the total mileage covered in a single charge.

The marketing of the product will convince consumers that they do not need to worry about charging.
