Electric vehicle sales are on the rise in the US. Sales have increased by 11 percent in the third quarter of 2024 compared to last year. Electric vehicles account for 9 percent of the new car market. Some analysts expect this share to reach ten percent by the end of the year. It was 8 percent in 2023. Electric vehicles have been supported by General Motors’ Equinox, Chevrolet Blazer and other affordable models. GM’s electric vehicle business grew 60 percent in the third quarter. By the way, Tesla still sells five times more electric cars than GM. GM CEO Mary Barra says the company is committed to its goal of stopping the sale of combustion engine (petrol, diesel, gas) cars in the US by 2035. The company hopes to make a profit on electric vehicles by the end of the year.
