A major impediment to wide acceptance of electric vehicles even on the part of people who use their cars almost exclusively for commuting is the inability to use their electric vehicles for occasional extended trips. In an attempt to make purchasing electric vehicles more attractive to commuters, one electric vehicle producer is planning to offer customers three days free rental of a conventional car for every 1,000 miles that they drive their electric vehicle.
Which of the following, if true, most threatens the plan's prospects for success?
A. Many electric vehicles that are used for commercial purposes are not needed for extended trips.
B. Because a majority of commuters drive at least 100 miles per week, the cost of the producer of making good the offer would add considerably to the already high price of electric vehicles.
C. The relatively long time it takes to recharge the battery of an electric vehicle can easily be fitted into the regular patterns of car use characteristic of commuters.
D. Although electric vehicles are essentially emission- free in actual use, generating the electricity necessary for charging an electric vehicle's battery can burden the environment.
E. Some family vehicles are used primarily not for commuting but for making short local trips, such as to do errands.
OA- B
I am confused as to why this would be right ans-
the entire conclusion of the passage is implementing this plan would make people buy more cars- we don't care what the manufacture's problems are.
Keeping the conclusion in mind wouldn't A be correct- if most of the cars are used commercially for short distances then they wouldn't care if you got a 3 day bonus free long distance car.
I know it says many for option choice a so even if all those who used this car commercially wouldn't buy the car there might still be a increase in the volume of cars sold but isn't it a better choice than B which isn't relevant to the question at all?
