It didn’t seem like any manufacturers really anticipated it to slow down. I expected EV’s to rocket to maybe 20% market share before slowing, but that’s also why I question if this is a real downturn or just a temporary dip.
As for Hybrids, I think it’s notable because of how many get sold. Crunching the math in the article, Toyota alone sold about 1.5 Million hybrids, but that shouldn’t be a big surprise. I think the real takeaway here is that manufacturers should be making some hybrids rather than allocating so many batteries to half-baked or overpriced EVs. Making an EV just to say you have an EV is probably not worth it at this point.
I expect that the EV market share will pop when somebody releases something exciting.
I just dont care about all of these stupid crossovers. The model 3 is the only EV that I would actually consider buying and it is pretty tired at this point
It’s becoming a meme, but I think solid state batteries are the hold up when it comes to fun EV’s. The current battery tech is just too weak and too heavy.
What surprises me is the lack of hybrid sports cars. We an EV Mustang thing and the regular Mustang but no Hybrid option. It all just seems odd to me when supercar manufacturers are very much embracing Hybrids to make fast cars.
