-
(uncountable) The fear that a vehicle (especially a battery electric vehicle) has insufficient range to reach its destination and will therefore strand its occupants.
The quantitative value of the BEV range anxiety is assumed to be equivalent to the cost that the BEV driver has to pay to complete the trip when the BEV is out of its electric range.
