NPR's Scott Horsley explains why drivers who are newly interested in purchasing an electric vehicle might not have a lot of options.

Here's more on why gas prices are so high from NPR's Chris Arnold. In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
