California Has ~50% Of US Electric Cars
January 20th, 2017 by James Ayre
EV Volumes recently highlighted
some interesting stats with an interesting graph showing plug-in
electric vehicle sales figures for the years 2011–2016 separated by
state.
As the graph shows, the vast majority of
plug-in electric vehicle sales in the US have been in California — with
Georgia, Washington, New York, Florida, and Texas making up the anemic
vanguard.
Presumably, the launch of the Tesla
Model 3 and the recent launch of the Chevy Bolt EV and the Toyota Prius
Prime should change this somewhat, with sales picking up in states other
than California. But we’ll have to wait to see.
EV Volumes provides a bit of context on this:
“Nearly 50% of US plug-in sales are still
in California. The other 9 states with ZEV mandates (CT, ME, MD, MA,
NJ, NY, OR, RI, VT) stand for 13%. The data shows the accumulated sales
between January 2011 and October 2016.
“The 10 ZEV states typically have a
combined 28% of the total vehicle market but their share in plug-in
sales is around 62%. In 2015/2016, the plug-in share in the 10 ZEV
states was 4–5 times higher than in the US states without ZEV targets.
With nationwide PEV adoption like in the ZEV states, plug-in sales would
be 2 times or more of what they are today.”
Interesting. I wouldn’t count on that
adoption level coming to reality anytime time soon, but perhaps the
Chevy Bolt, the Toyota Prius Prime, and the Tesla Model 3 will level the
field out somewhat.
