Electric Vehicle (EV) Market Share by Selected US States (2016)
This older chart below looks at data from 2016 and also includes: the percent of EV sales each state had of the entire US; the same percentage except excluding California from the total; and the percent of total auto registrations each state accounts of total US registrations; and then the percentage above or below for EVs relative to the total registration numbers.
Six states and the District of Columbia saw EV sales comprise 1% or more of total auto sales within their state for all of 2016. At 3.66% for the year, California had nearly double the next highest EV purchase rates held by Oregon and Washington.
Seven states also matched or exceeded their percentage of US auto sales with their percentage of US EV sales. California consumers purchased 12% of autos in the US, but bought more than 50% of all EVs in the US. In essence Californian’s are pulling 4 times their EV purchase weight. While Oregon and Washington buys at a bit more than 2 times their total auto purchase rate.
