Electric Vehicles Trends in 2025

It is expected that by 2025 more than half of all new car sales will be electric vehicles (EVs). The EV market is growing exponentially and the global electric vehicle market size is anticipated to reach around USD 900 billion by 2028, according to a new research report by Polaris Market Research. The report presupposes the prospect of reaching a market value of over USD 1.5 trillion by 2030, documenting a CAGR of around 17.8% from 2021 to 2030. Governments are actively incentivizing the production and purchase of electric vehicles to reduce their carbon footprint and reduce air pollution, which is causing respiratory disease and shortening the lifespans of their citizens. afore mentioned factors further reinforced by initiatives by market players to introduce affordable EVs coupled with charging infrastructure developments across different regions will augment the growth of the EV market during the forecast period. Eventually, the market is likely to witness significant growth prospects rising from income disparities, thereby driving the overall revenue generation.

Key Market Trends

• By vehicle type, the passenger car segment dominated the market in 2020 owing to the growing demand for EVs driven by the rising levels of air pollution and the increasing need for energy conservation.

• The commercial vehicle segment is expected to grow at a substantial CAGR owing to the growing penetration of EVs in logistics and public transportation applications.

• By charging station, the commercial charging segment is anticipated to witness substantial growth over the forecast period owing to the increasing adoption of EVs for commercial purposes including public transportation, logistics, and others.

• The home charging segment is also expected to grow at a significant CAGR owing to advantages such as convenient charging and reduced charging costs.

• By power output, the less than 100 kW segment dominated the market in 2020 owing to the growing popularity of plug-in hybrid electric vehicles and electric scooters.

Additionally, the sudden and rapid spread of the COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the global electric vehicle market. As the markets and industries were majorly affected, the consumers were concerned about their health and finance during the pandemic, in turn decreasing the demand for EVs. The shutdowns, social distancing norms, and lockdowns implemented to curb the spread of the virus have significantly impacted the industry's production and supply chain, further impacting the market. However, the EV market has already started recovering gradually as the economies are reopening their doors for businesses. The market is anticipated to witness significant growth post-pandemic owing to the increasing demand for renewable energy sources, a growing number of initiatives by the government, and growing investments by automotive manufacturers in the EV space.

Trump's Attempt to Unilaterally Control State and Local Funding is Dangerous, Dumb, and Undemocratic

The Trump administration has not been subtle in its desire to use federal funding for political punishment. Whether threatening to cut off grants to sanctuary cities, to block financial assistance to states that push back against the president’s demands, or to freeze all federal grants and loans for social services across the country, Trump and his allies want us to believe they can wield the federal budget like a weapon. The reality is that the administration’s ability to withhold or condition funding is far more limited than they let on. The Constitution, Supreme Court precedent, and long-standing federal law stand firmly in the way of this brazen abuse of presidential power. Trump’s Attempted Funding Freeze? Blocked Immediately A week into his second administration, Trump attempted to freeze trillions of dollars in federal grants and loans that fund a vast array of critical services already approved by Congress. If allowed to go into effect, this unprecedented and far-reaching...

Documents Reveal Confusion and Lack of Training in Texas Execution

As Texas seeks to execute Carl Buntion today and Melissa Lucio next week, it is worth reflecting on the grave and irreversible failures that occurred when the state executed Quintin Jones on May 19, 2021. For the first time in its history — and in violation of a federal court’s directive and the Texas Administrative Code — Texas excluded the media from witnessing the state’s execution of Quintin Jones. In the months that followed, Texas executed two additional people without providing any assurance that the underlying dysfunction causing errors at Mr. Jones’ execution were addressed. This is particularly concerning given that Texas has executed far more people than any other state and has botched numerous executions. The First Amendment guarantees the public and the press have a right to observe executions. Media access to executions is a critical form of public oversight as the government exerts its power to end a human life. Consistent with Texas policy, two reporters travelled t...

The Supreme Court Declined a Protestors' Rights Case. Here's What You Need to Know.

The Supreme Court recently declined to hear a case, Mckesson v. Doe , that could have affirmed that the First Amendment protects protest organizers from being held liable for illegal actions committed by others present that organizers did not direct or intend. The high court’s decision to not hear the case at this time left in place an opinion by the Fifth Circuit, which covers Louisiana, Mississippi, and Texas, that said a protest organizer could be liable for the independent, violent actions of others based on nothing more than a showing of negligence. Across the country, many people have expressed concern about how the Supreme Court’s decision not to review, or hear, the case at this stage could impact the right to protest. The ACLU, which asked the court to take up the case, breaks down what the court’s denial of review means. What Happened in Mckesson v. Doe? The case, Mckesson v. Doe , was brought by a police officer against DeRay Mckesson , a prominent civil rights activi...
