Share of All U.S. Vehicle Trips by Length (miles)
Source: Oak Ridge National Laboratory, 2022 National Household Travel Survey
This chart shows the distribution of trip lengths among all vehicle trips in the United States. A substantial majority of U.S. vehicle trips are less than 6 miles long, and only about 6.9% are longer than 30 miles. This can inform electric vehicle (EV) manufacturers as they determine the required battery size for EVs, and developers of charging networks as they determine where charging units are likely to be needed.
