This statistic is using original data from the Government Digital Service and includes copyright material licensed under © Crown, the Open Government License v3.0.

Original survey question: "How would you rate your knowledge of electric cars, these are either plug-in hybrids or battery electric car? Using a scale, ranging from 1 to 7, where 1 would mean ‘no knowledge’ and 7 would mean ‘complete knowledge’ of electric cars".

The source does not report the percentage of "Don't know" answers but specifies that three of the 2,011 respondents chose this answer.
