Ford, Hyundai report large declines in October EV sales after end of federal credits

EV Sales Report

Summary

Major automakers reported a significant decline in all-electric vehicle sales for October, following the expiration of U.S. federal tax credits of up to $7,500. This drop is attributed to buyers accelerating their purchases before the incentives ended.

Key Points

  • Sales Declines: Ford (25% drop YoY), Toyota (sold only 18 BZ4X units vs. 1,401 a year ago), Kia, and Hyundai (52%-71% drops for top models).
  • Monthly Comparison: Declines were even steeper from September to October (e.g., Hyundai Ioniq 5 down 80%).
  • Industry Context: The sales drop was anticipated by executives after a record Q3 for EV sales.
  • Hybrid Growth: Hybrid vehicle sales increased, with Hyundai reporting a 41% surge.
  • Market Reset: Analysts suggest the market is now entering a phase driven by genuine consumer interest rather than incentives.

电动汽车销售报告

总结

多家主要汽车制造商报告称,10月份全电动汽车销量大幅下降,原因是美国高达7500美元的联邦税收抵免政策结束。此次销量下滑归因于消费者在激励政策结束前提前购买了车辆。

关键点

  • 销量下降: 福特(同比下降25%)、丰田(bZ4X仅售出18辆,去年同期为1401辆)、起亚和现代(主力车型下降52%-71%)。
  • 月度对比: 从9月到10月的降幅更为显著(例如,现代Ioniq 5下降80%)。
  • 行业背景: 在电动汽车销量创纪录的第三季度之后,高管们已预料到此次销量下降。
  • 混合动力车增长: 混合动力汽车销量增长,现代报告其混合动力车销量激增41%。
  • 市场调整: 分析师认为,市场正进入一个由真实消费需求而非激励政策驱动的阶段。
