“…This group of users only charge when needed. The risk-seeking users reportedly owned their vehicles for less than a year (Pan et al, 2019) with access to a wide range of charging stations (Khaleghikarahrodi et al, 2022;Hu et al, 2019). This implies that recent EV owners believe in a well-established charging infrastructure.…”

The existence of electric vehicle users who procrastinate their charging activities – delay in charging until a critically low state of charge (i.e., almost empty battery) – is acknowledged in the previous survey studies and data-driven analyses. However, the underlying reasons affecting such behavior have not been explored. This study attempts to justify whether procrastination in charging is due to larger battery capacities and users’ close proximity to charging stations. The results indicate that battery sizes can have a significant effect on EV users’ procrastination charging behavior. This study found that users with battery capacities greater than 21kWh tend to procrastinate charging since they can travel longer distances. The findings will be able to serve a broad range of EV industry stakeholders due to the emerging market and continuous improvement for achieving mass EV adoption.
