This much we know: New-vehicle sales in the second quarter struggled, up only modestly from the first quarter and down more than 20% from Q2 2021. The reasons are well documented – tight inventory, high prices, consumer sentiment dropping. There were a few positive notes in the Q2 sales numbers, and among them EV sales stood out the most. Sales of battery-powered electric vehicles – pure EVs – jumped to 196,788, a record high and a 13% increase from Q1.
The Kelley Blue Book team has finished their best estimates of electrified vehicle sales in Q2. The full Q2 report is posted below, with model- and brand-level details. Here are 10 quick takeaways.
