More than 90% of vehicle-owning households in the United States would see a reduction in the percentage of income spent on transportation energy'the gasoline or electricity that powers their cars, SUVs and pickups'if they switched to electric vehicles.

And more than 90% of households that replace gas-powered vehicles with EVs would also reduce the amount of climate-warming greenhouse gases they generate, according to a new University of Michigan study.

However, more than half of the lowest-income U.S. households (an estimated 8.3 million households) would continue to experience high transportation energy burdens, defined in this study as spending more than 4% of household income on filling the tank or charging up.
