“EV is absolutely important technology, and we are developing it. But [in the U.S.] EVs last year [were] about 6% of the market. This year it is 8%. And out of that 8%, 57% was Tesla. Other EVs are not taking off, inventory is piling up,” he said
So EVs increased their IS market share by 30% in one year, represents about 15% of the light vehicle share in the US, all with lukewarm at best marketing & infrastructure support, and Mazda doesn’t want a piece. Cool. Part of my decision to buy a Volvo EV was based on the way the company has embraced an EV future.
