U.S. electric vehicle (EV) registrations declined for the first time in a decade last year, dropping 0.4% overall and dramatically by 48% in December due to the expiration of federal tax credits. While Tesla maintains a significant market share, its lead is shrinking, and most automakers, including Ford, saw substantial declines, though GM’s Cadillac was a rare bright spot. Despite continued improvements in charging infrastructure and narrowing price gaps, analysts suggest investors should not expect a quick rebound in EV sales, instead anticipating a gradual increase.
