Here's a link to the article : http://abcnews.go.com/Business/wireStory/suvs-main-attraction-la-auto-show-51470734

This paragraph caught my interest (I was surprised by the numbers) :

"California buyers purchase a higher percentage of hybrids and electrics than the U.S. as a whole thanks to state tax credits and other incentives. Nearly 50 percent of all U.S. electric vehicle purchases since 2011 have been in California, according to the International Council on Clean Transportation. California also has 31 percent of all U.S. public charging infrastructure for electric vehicles."
 
That isn't surprising to those of us who live the in the EV Desert that is the rest of the US.

Even a CARB tag along state like NY has almost no DC fast chargers, your quote is no surprise to me...
And yet our governor tells us that NY is the "leader" and that other states like CA "follow" us. Right... :roll:
