Transportation sector gasoline demand declines. Sales of battery-powered electric vehicles are 65% lower in the AEO2013 Reference case than the year before, with annual sales in 2035 estimated to be about 119,000. Motor gasoline consumption will be less than previously estimated. Click to enlarge. Overall findings.
