Next 10 report finds California will meet or exceed original target of 1.5M ZEVs by 2025

Green Car Congress

The report shows that projected global ZEV adoption from 2015 to 2039 (based on the BNEF 2017 forecast) may follow an s-curve, similar to that of smartphone adoption in the US from 2005 to 2015. In 2017, Tesla Model S had the farthest EPA-rated range for an all-electric vehicle, at 315 miles. But it works out to only 0.05

GFEI report suggests $2T savings from fuel economy improvements in ICE vehicles through 2025 can help fund long-term transition to plug-ins

Green Car Congress

The GFEI, a partnership of international agencies and top energy policy experts, suggests that these cost savings could in part be used to help offset the costs of developing a global market for electric vehicles over this time frame, since the savings are estimated to be at least four times bigger than these costs. per liter ($0.26/gallon
