2024 was a roller-coaster of a year in EV-land. While electric car sales decelerated somewhat, EV market share continued to grow. Elon Musk’s antics started plaguing Tesla’s bottom line, as long-time customers (myself included) started leaving the brand. GM, Honda, Hyundai, and Kia all experienced record EV sales, and the Toyota Corolla even regained its long-time “world’s best-selling car” title after losing it to the Tesla Model Y in 2023.
The Acura ZDX, Chevrolet Silverado EV / Blazer EV / Equinox EV, Fiat 500e, Honda Prologue, Hyundai IONIQ 5 N, Kia EV9, Polestar 3, Porsche Macan EV, Rivian R1S/R1T (2ng gen), Tesla Model 3 Highland, Volkswagen ID.Buzz, and Volvo EX90 are some of the new electric cars that became widely available to North American customers this year.
