showing *gasoline* cars that were recalled for a fire risk with one of ... you guessed it ... a row of Hyundai Ioniq 5s (EVs). Which were NOT recalled.

Don’t let this headline fool you:

sales are growing every day, but automakers aren’t making affordable models.
Surveys are showing that buyers are interested in

industry and

Good news for
#EV
demand.:
"In Collin County, home to Plano (Dallas suburb), EV market share is well above the national average and growing fast, reaching 8.7 percent of new-vehicle registrations last year, according to S&P Global Mobility.
"With today’s announcement, $15 million was added to Charge Ready NY 2.0, to support EV charger installation at workplaces and multifamily buildings statewide, as well as public facilities located in disadvantaged communities."

"Cox data indicated new-EV sales in the U.S. during Q1 '23 were 6.7% of the total market @ 240k vehicles, up 5% yr/yr. Prices also fell, with the
#EV
premium price compared to ICE autos of a similar type being 23% in the quarter, down from 37% in Q4 '22.
The first 3 months of 2023 witnessed an increase of 63% more EV registrations compared to 2022. An exciting trend, see how a EVA's local chapter in Knoxville is educating folks at popular local events.
