The search volume for electric cars on the American car purchasing platform has increased by about 20%.

According to statistics from the American insurance company AAA, as of March 22, the national average gas price in the United States reached $3.94 per gallon, the highest level in nearly three years. The high gas prices have rapidly changed the behavior of some consumers. Data from the car purchasing platform CarEdge shows that searches related to electric cars have increased by about 20% in the three weeks since the military action began. Analysts stated, "Within the first 48 hours after the start of the war, there was a surge in search volume. If high gas prices continue for a month or longer, the growth rate may further expand."
