Electric Cars: The U.S. Falling Behind in Competition

Electric Cars: The U.S. Falling Behind in Competition

Although electric car sales in the U.S. are increasing, the country still lags behind in the global market race. Last year, more than 1.2 million electric vehicles were sold in the U.S., but this figure is much lower than in China and Europe, where nearly half of new cars run on electricity.

Experts believe the slow growth of the U.S. electric car market is due to insufficient government support. Former President Joe Biden introduced tax incentives and investments to support the industry, but Donald Trump reversed some of those measures.

Today, electric cars in the U.S. remain expensive — averaging around 57,000 dollars. This makes them less attractive to most buyers compared to cheaper gasoline vehicles.

Experts predict that once incentives end, demand for electric cars will decline. They say that if the U.S. does not take active steps, it could fall even further behind in the global automotive technology race.
