We don't know if the electric car sales are poised to accelerate in sales, or will they be stuck in neutral, but the latest forecast tells us what could occur under existing policies as technologies continue to evolve. Previously we had been expecting electrics to remain a tiny share of U.S. vehicle sales for decades to come. But now we see a brighter future for electric vehicles, with annual sales topping 1.2 million cars by 2025 plus an additional 186,000 light trucks. That's nearly double its forecast from last year, and nearly 10 times its forecast from 2014. ...
U.S. regulators said that they did not found any defects in Tesla electric cars after investigating the death of a man whose Model S collided a truck while he was using its Autopilot system, which was the first serious accident involving semi-autonomous software. The U.S. National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said in a report it will not seek a vehicle recall after conducting a six-month investigation. The crash drew enormous attention and raised questions about the safety of systems that can perform driving tasks for long stretches with little or no human intervention.&nbs...

Even so, we have all the signs for the industry to get well in 2017, and show positive sales and new records.

Tesla Motors Inc. reported fourth-quarter deliveries that fell short of its own forecasts as production delays continue to plague the carmaker led by CEO Elon Musk. The Palo Alto, Calif.-based maker of electric cars and energy-storage products delivered about 22,200 vehicles in the final three months of last year, according to a statement Tuesday. The total trailed the automaker’s projection for 25,000 units and brought its full-year tally to 76,230 vehicles, below its forecast for at least 80,000 units. Musk has a history of setting ambitious targets and timelines for Tesla a...
According to the new electric vehicle charger operator report, more than 500,000 electric cars have been sold in the United States. Between November 2015 and November 2016 were sold 30,000 plug-in hybrid or battery-powered electric vehicles. California, home of Silicon Valley and Tesla, has the highest number of electric vehicles in operation, ahead of Georgia, Washington, Florida and Texas. Tesla received 276,000 pre-orders for the “mass-market” Model 3 within two days of it going on sale in April, making it the most popular electric car ever produced Tesla t...
