“It’s an interesting time for EV’s as there are more battery-electric models on sale and coming than we’ve seen in the modern era – with many of the upcoming models SUVs and pickup trucks, " Brooke Skinner Ricketts, chief experience officer at Cars.com, wrote in an email. "It only makes sense that we saw more EV ads air during the Super Bowl than ever before last night. With that said, mainstream use of EVs will continue to lag due to affordability concerns, low gas prices and lack of public infrastructure, among other reasons.”
Cars.com went on to analyze the influence of the car ads. While the Hummer EV won't be available until late 2021, the ad inspired 479 percent more views on Cars.com's used Hummer pages — even though the Hummer was discontinued in 2010. It also resulted in a 26 percent increase in visits to GMC pages on Cars.com.
