A new resource is now available on the UCLA Luskin Center EV Initiative's Market Dynamics page:

Are EV sales really disappointing?  That may be a matter of expectations (more on this later).  But what are the facts so far?  Soon there will be over 100,000 plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs) on U.S. roads.  And by some measures, PEVs are off to a much better start than gasoline-only hybrids were a decade ago.  U.S. PEVs represent $3 billion in gross revenues (and the Volt alone $1.3 billion).  Learn more from a new Luskin resource, to be updated monthly, characterizing PEV sales from December 2010 to the present.
