The sudden collapse of EV sales in the US notwithstanding, the Finnish firm Kempower foresees a healthy market for EV charging stations over the long term (courtesy for Kempower).
The much-anticipated downward slide in US electric vehicle sales is well underway, now that 30 days have passed since the premature demise of the federal EV tax credit.

I spent much of the week writing about how much EV sales growth several automakers scored in the 3rd quarter in the US. As a short recap, year over year: Audi EV sales grew 232% Volkswagen EV sales grew 231% Cadillac EV sales grew 146% Hyundai EV sales grew 103% … [continued]
I’d love to see Rivian do well, and its sales year over year were indeed up 31.8% in the 3rd quarter. However, that’s not really a huge jump compared to other auto brands*. The company delivered 13,201 vehicles, and produced 10,720. While that’s apparently what Rivian was targeting, the bad … [continued]
GMC is not the company that comes to mind at first when you think about electric vehicles, but it is actually doing quite well on moving them out the door. In fact, GMC sells just 5 models, and two of them are full electrics. Its legendary Hummer is now only … [continued]
Continuing our series on how much different brands’ US EV sales surged in the 3rd quarter, it’s now time to have a look at Honda. Some auto brands actually had a lame 3rd quarter, or even a very lame 3rd quarter (more on that later), so let me just say … [continued]
Covering the big EV sales growth from various auto brands yesterday, I thought I got the biggest growth stories. However, apparently, I did not! While Volkswagen EV sales grew 231% year over year, sibling Audi one-upped that — literally — growing 232%. One commenter under that article did point me … [continued]
Volkswagen certainly benefited from the 3rd quarter EV sales surge in the US. It’s main electric model, the ID.4, saw its sales jump 176% compared to the 3rd quarter of 2024. Adding in sales of the ID. Buzz, which was not yet on the market in the US at this … [continued]
Another auto company has clearly seen its EV sales jump as a result of the expiring US EV tax credit and the consumer rush to buy EVs before October 1st. That company is Ford. 3rd Quarter Sales Ford’s most popular electric vehicle, the Mustang Mach-E, saw the most growth. With … [continued]
As we expected, automakers had a strong quarter of EV sales in the 3rd quarter in the USA, and that includes Chevrolet. GM’s mass-market brand scored 37,114 EV sales last quarter, up 86.2% from 19,933 sales in the 3rd quarter of 2024. However, it’s not just about the federal EV … [continued]
Cadillac just set a new high bar for itself — and other legacy auto brands — in the 3rd quarter, with 40% of its US sales being electrics in the quarter (or 39.51% if you want to move the decimal point). The LYRIQ led the line, with 7,309 sales, up … [continued]
