EV sales jumped by 68% year over year in Q, and for the first time, EV sales in the U.S. nearly equaled hybrid sales.
Arriving in dealerships later this year, the 2023 Toyota Crown essentially replaces the Avalon, launching with a new design, two hybrid powertrain options, and standard AWD.
The industry started with a reasonable solution by developing hybrids, which increased the fuel economy on similar-size vehicles from the low 30 mpg to the mid-50s mpg. Hybrids also reduce CO2 emissions without the range anxiety.
Electric vehicles and hybrids are becoming a coveted commodity as consumers turn practical about operating costs.
EV shopping increased the most among non-luxury buyers – those hit hardest by higher gas prices – and for electric SUVs versus cars.
Consumer EV data indicates which models are most in demand and likely to command higher values. Ford revs up with four models in the Top 10 of most-shopped electrified vehicles, including the F-150 Lightning, F-150 Hybrid, and Maverick Hybrid.
Sales of pure battery-electric vehicles jumped 72% to a record 147,799, the best quarter ever for EVs.
Hybrids and plug-ins still dominate the electrified market, but with quarter-over-quarter sales up 201%, automakers are pointing to a future with more EVs.
