USA Total Electric Car Stock in Millions

In contrast to China, the US is still largely home to a gas and diesel consuming combustion engine car-loving demographic. California is home to nearly all of the EVs that roam US roads.

In 2022, the US sold 990,000 EVs and saw their EV stock rise to 3 million, nation-wide.

Normalizing rates by population by looking at the rate of EV adoption across the country’s entire car population puts the US at the back of the pack at 2.1% electrifiation rate.

Europe as a whole sits at 2.7%, while it’s leading nations like Norway take the #1 spot globally with a 27% electrification rate.

China’s electrification rate is more than double that of America’s at 4.9%.
