U.S. EV Sales Shot Up 11% In Q1. Tesla Plunged 9%
Briefly

In the first quarter of 2025, electric vehicle (EV) sales in the U.S. increased by 11.4% year-over-year, totaling nearly 300,000 new cars sold, driven by strong performances from manufacturers like GM, Ford, Honda, and BMW. This growth continues despite Tesla's struggles, which saw an 8.6% decline in U.S. sales. The auto industry faces uncertainties due to potential tariffs and policy changes, but Cox Automotive reports that the overall market remains resilient. Companies are prepared for various challenges as they roll out new EV models throughout the year.
Without a significant shift in product strategy, Tesla will continue to shrink in the U.S. market.
Despite many obstacles—and what you may read elsewhere—electric-vehicle sales continue to grow at a healthy pace in the U.S. market.
