December was a Record Month! There were over 2.1 million plugin vehicles registered in December, with both BEVs (+13% YoY) and PHEVs (+6% YoY) rising. With the USA EV market still in hangover mode and China slowing down, it was up to the Rest of the World (+51% YoY) to … [continued]
NIO’s recent sales growth has continued in 2026. After a long period of slow growth, in August of last year, NIO’s sales jumped up tremendously. Then sales continued to growth throughout the rest of the year. But what about January, with other Chinese EV makers struggling to get rolling this … [continued]

I just wrote about 4th quarter US EV sales. As expected, they don’t look great. Sales dropped a ton in the 4th quarter after Republicans killed the $7,500 US EV tax credit. However, we all know that the 3rd quarter was a blockbuster quarter for US EV sales for the … [continued]
As expected, the US electric vehicle market took a hit in the 4th quarter. With the $7,500 federal EV tax credit ending at the end of the 3rd quarter (after Republicans in Congress and Donald Trump prematurely killed it), people rushed to buy EVs before October, and then the market … [continued]
