National Review: The Corner: Electric Vehicles: Meeting Market Reality
Sales of electric vehicles (EVs) in the US are increasing rapidly, reaching 4 million units in just 10 months. Discounts at Tesla and Ford, as well as tax credits, have contributed to the rise in sales. However, there is a growing mismatch between the supply of EVs and consumer demand, primarily due to concerns over price and charging. Despite this, consumer interest in EVs is increasing, with more people considering purchasing one. The nationwide supply of EVs in stock has swelled by nearly 350% this year, causing a three-month supply to accumulate. In contrast, inventory levels for hybrid vehicles are lower, indicating that consumers may prefer hybrids as a transitional option to full electric cars. Toyota, in particular, has experienced a shortage of hybrids, suggesting that consumers desire a range of auto technologies rather than exclusively focusing on EVs. The transition to EVs as dictated by government regulations may present challenges such as increased costs, reduced consumer choice, and reluctance from portions of the population. Despite the temporary discrepancies in inventory levels, the situation highlights the potential consequences when government intervention clashes with consumer preference.
