Monthly EV Minute: Based on November 2024 Data

Jan. 2, 2025

Welcome back to our monthly update series that provides the latest developments on EV sales, EV user satisfaction, and EV charging growth. We want to make sure you saw that the NEVI Awards Dashboard developed by Atlas Public Policy, NASEO, and AASHTO with support from the Joint Office of Energy and Transportation, is now available! Check it out to see real-time updates of the deployment of federally-funded fast chargers every 50 miles along more than 82,000 miles of highway corridors.

Here is a quick update with the latest information on EV sales and charger availability through November 2024.

EV Sales for November 2024

Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) include both battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), and sales continue to grow. As of the end of November, a total of 1,412,298 PEVs have been sold in 2024. EV sales this year continue to outperform last year’s EV sales. EV sales growth has also kept pace with overall light-duty sales growth.

• For context, at the end of November 2023, cumulative PEV sales amounted to 1,295,426 vehicles sold. In other words, 116,872 (9%) more PEVs have sold in 2024 than at this same time last year.

Plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) captured 10.4% of total light duty vehicle (LDV) sales in November 2024.  PEVs were 9.4% of annual passenger vehicle sales in 2023, up from 6.8% in the annual sale of 2022.

• A total of 141,442 PEVs (117,929 BEVs and 23,513 PHEVs) were sold during November 2024 in the United States, up 11.5% from the sales in November 2023.

• A total of 1,360,060 light-duty vehicles (240,484 cars and 1,119,576 light trucks) were sold in the United States during November 2024, up 10.1% from the sales in November 2023.

Cumulatively, over 6.1 million PEVs have been sold in the United States to date.
