From 2014 through 2017, more than half of all EVs sold in the US were purchased in California, but that fraction has now fallen to one third. More EV models are now available, from small cars to pickup trucks, meaning more buyers have an electric option that meets their needs. More widespread adoption of EVs across the US is also a factor.

That’s a far cry from just six years ago, when EVs were considered a niche technology (and the fossil fuel baron Charles Koch and his minions wanted to keep it that way). We conducted an analysis in 2017 that found that it was cheaper to charge an EV than fill up a gasoline car in the 50 largest US cities. How significant is that?
