Electric Vehicle Owners Survey Template
This electric vehicle owners survey template asks battery-electric vehicle drivers about charging access and their recent public-charging experience. Use the answers to distinguish access, reliability and pricing problems.
This electric vehicle owners survey template asks battery-electric vehicle drivers about charging access and their recent public-charging experience. Use the answers to distinguish access, reliability and pricing problems.
Having a charger nearby is different from being able to use it when needed. Ask drivers where they normally charge and what happened on a recent attempt before drawing conclusions from an overall satisfaction rating.
When to use this electric vehicle owners survey
Charging operators, community planners and EV-owner groups can use this survey with adults who drive a battery-electric vehicle. SurveyLegend helps gather user experience for service planning. This version focuses on charging during the past 30 days and does not diagnose a vehicle or charger fault.
7 questions for your electric vehicle owners survey
Answer about driving a battery-electric vehicle in the past 30 days. Do not include your home address, vehicle registration or account information. All questions are optional. This is not a technical fault-reporting service.

Customize your electric vehicle owners survey
Define what counts as public charging in your setting and retain the no-public-charging answers. Keep home-charging access separate from where someone charged most. For a single site, name the site and revise all public-charging questions consistently. Test terminology with drivers before launching. Avoid leading questions that assume every charging attempt was unreliable or expensive.
Printable electric vehicle owners survey
Use the printable version at an EV community meeting or charging-service feedback session. Keep the same questions and answer options so paper responses can be reviewed consistently with online replies.

How to use the answers
First separate people who attempted public charging from those who did not. Within users, review unsuccessful attempts, the biggest obstacle and price clarity. Compare people with and without home charging only when group sizes allow meaningful interpretation. An unsuccessful attempt is reported experience, not proof of a hardware failure. Classify open-ended data by access, equipment, payment and information issues before assigning follow-up work. Limit owner-specific findings to respondents who confirmed that they currently drive a battery-electric vehicle.
In the Results, EVCS reliability, Yu and colleagues (2025) write: “confusion over pricing transparency”. The authors identify this among the concerns reported in negative charging reviews. This template reflects those distinctions instead of combining them into one satisfaction question. Online reviews are self-selected reports, so the study's findings are not a failure-rate benchmark for your respondents. Read the charging reliability study for the study's context.
Frequently asked questions
Does this identify a battery fault?
No. It records drivers' experiences. Vehicle and charger faults need the appropriate technical support process.
Why ask about charging at home?
People without home charging may rely on public infrastructure differently. Keep that context when interpreting public-charging answers.
Can I calculate a charger failure rate?
Not from these answers alone. They describe respondents' recent attempts, not a monitored record of every session or a representative sample of all chargers.
