Analysis

  • EV Market Matures in Q2 2025 with Diversified Models, More Trade-Ins, and Steady Sales August 5, 2025
    California added 100,671 new electric vehicles in Q2 2025, claiming 21.6% of the state’s light-duty vehicle market. That’s a modest dip from 23% in the prior quarter, yet it marks twelve straight quarters with EV share holding above 20 percent — evidence of a maturing market. Nationally, 310,839 new EVs were sold in Q2 2025, representing a 4.9% increase over Q1, with total new EV sales for the first half of the year reaching a record 607,089, up 1.5% year-over-year.
