Abstract: Abstract Fuel price and availability are, of course, relevant to determining the diffusion patterns of vehicles. The example of natural gas (CNG) cars, whose wide distribution was hampered by the poor development of the refuelling station network, is well known. But in the case of electric vehicles it is even more important to consider the question, because of the complex management of the electricity supply.
