What information will eVIUS collect? The eVIUS will ask you to provide information about your registered electric vehicle such as: the type of vehicle ownership (e.g., personal vs. business), type of vehicle use, weekly and annual mileage, and charging behaviors. How long will the survey take? We estimate that the eVIUS will take an average of 15 minutes to complete. Will my data be shared? Any data you provide would be kept strictly confidential and only used to produce aggregate statistics. What are the next steps? You will receive a letter in the next couple of weeks providing detailed information about the online survey, along with your survey link.
