Chevrolet has risen to become the second-largest electric vehicle (EV) maker in the U.S., overtaking Ford with over 37,000 EVs sold in the first five months of the year. General Motors, Chevrolet's parent company, benefitted from a robust lineup of battery-powered vehicles, achieving a 14% sales increase. Despite challenges in the automotive industry, such as sourcing materials, GM reported impressive growth, with EV market share doubling year-over-year. However, GM still lags significantly behind Tesla, which sold approximately 128,100 EVs in the same period.
Chevrolet is now the second-best-selling electric car maker in the United States, surpassing Ford and getting a little closer to the number one spot that has long been occupied by Tesla.
In the first five months of this year, Chevrolet sold over 37,000 EVs in the U.S., leaving Ford, with its estimated 34,000 EVs, in the dust.
Customers are responding in record numbers to our world-class portfolio of electric and gas-powered vehicles," said Rory Harvey, executive VP and president of global markets.
In the first two months of the second quarter, we more than doubled our EV sales compared to the same period last year.
