This is What EV Adoption Looks Like in the U.S. Right Now
Electric vehicles are no longer confined to early adopters or coastal markets; they’re showing up in everyday life across the country. From multigenerational households managing school drop-offs to renters in the Midwest navigating charging without a garage, EV ownership is expanding into real-world scenarios that reflect how Americans actually live. To capture that shift, Veloz, a national nonpartisan 501(c)(3) nonprofit, today announced the launch of its Real Stories hub on ElectricForAll.org, a brand-neutral interactive destination that brings together first-person stories from EV drivers across the United States.
Q1 2026 EV Market: A Challenging Quarter for New EV Sales in California, a Near-Record One for National Used EV Sales
In the first quarter of 2026, Californians purchased 63,461 new EVs, representing 15.7% of all new light-duty vehicle sales in the state. New EV sales were down 37% compared to Q1 2025 and down 20% from last quarter. This reflects a combination of factors, including an increase of new EV sales in the second half of 2025 due to Californians taking advantage of the federal tax credit before it expired, a decrease in overall new vehicle sales in Q1, and the growing uptake of used EVs.
Consumer Insight Supports EV Policy
EVs are no longer a niche technology or a mobility solution for the future —they are here, and they are accelerating globally. Around the world, EV sales continue to rise as barriers to consumer adoption fall, supported by more than a trillion dollars in investments in EV manufacturing, charging infrastructure, and clean transportation strategies that keep nations competitive in a rapidly evolving global market […] Veloz’s latest national survey and its national consumer education campaign, called Electric For All – The Way Forward is Electric, highlight a critical point: exposure to clear, practical information significantly increases consumer interest in EVs.
What’s Changing Consumers’ Minds About EVs? New Survey Reveals Which Messages Break Through.
Sacramento, Calif. — Despite headlines suggesting waning enthusiasm for electric vehicles (EVs), a new national survey of non-EV drivers indicates EV adoption is being held back by a lack of practical information about real-world costs, home charging, and everyday usability. Exposure to clear, straightforward messages significantly increased purchase interest across all geographies, demographic groups, and political persuasion, showing EV adoption may be less about consumer resistance and more about insufficient information.
States Can Lead the Charge on EV Policy
States and local governments have a unique and timely opportunity to lead with stable electric vehicle (EV) policy in the face of a shifting federal policy landscape. We’ve seen what states can do when they band together for a common goal. More than a decade ago, 10 states pledged to put 3.3 million EVs on the road by 2025. At the time, it was an ambitious prospect when there were only 200,000 EVs on the road and fewer than 20 models to choose from. The 10 states agreed to adopt similar incentives and regulations to encourage EV ownership, cut pollution, and boost their economies. Now, the state-led effort has hit the 3.3 million milestone, according to a recent report by the Northeast States for Coordinated Air Use Management…
National Initiative Tackles EV Barriers Through Education
Millions of Americans are ready to go electric — but misperceptions and unfamiliarity with electric vehicles (EVs) are holding them back. To address misinformation, Veloz, a nonpartisan 501 (c)(3) nonprofit and longtime innovator in EV education, has been awarded a $43.5 million sponsorship from Electrify America, the largest open Hyper-Fast charging network in the U.S., to mark the beginning of a much-needed national Electric For All consumer education effort.
Let’s Keep the Pedal to the Metal on EV Manufacturing in 2025
Two headlines in the last month tell compelling stories for the future of the EV market in 2025. First, according to our recently released polling data, 60% of Americans agree the election results had zero impact on their interest in getting an electric vehicle (EV). The second, which supports our poll findings, comes from The New York Times reporting major automaker sales gains in 2024 thanks to the introduction of dozens of competing EV models, providing buyers with newer designs, lower prices at the dealership and the $7,500 federal tax incentive. Despite the sales growth of EVs in the U.S., our data shows that Americans mistakenly believe we are a leader in EV manufacturing.
While consumers and industry leaders read the crystal ball on the potential policy shifts from the incoming federal administration, the polling data and EV sales trends show that whether a Republican or Democrat is in the White House, EVs have the momentum and are here to stay. China is currently the global leader on EV manufacturing; however, America is positioned to also lead if we keep the pedal to the metal on EV manufacturing investments. We must do more to support EV manufacturing in the U.S. to lead in this crucial global economic pillar.
