Abstract
Abstract Electric Vehicle (EV) technology is the key to emission reduction and energy efficiency improvement targets while decreasing the dependence on fossil fuel. Despite the fact that replacing conventional vehicle powered by internal combustion engine with EVs reduce greenhouse gas emissions, limited range of EVs has been leading their mass deployment towards saturation. This paper performs a scoping review of articles on range anxiety induced among EV users. It explores user’s perception and actual affecting factors on range of EVs, and proceeds on to measures suggested in the articles to mitigate range anxiety.
