An Unsettled EV Market as Some Automakers Step Forward and Others Pull Back
Sales of battery electrics (including PHEVs) are growing and new products are launching and in development, but the market is unsettled. Tesla remains the market leader, but its product plan and market strategy is unclear, even as Elon Musk has become a polarizing figure affecting Tesla’s sales results while his influence via his support of President Trump is likely to affect regulatory policy.
How will the industry respond to the opportunities and challenges?
Consumer interest in electric vehicles continues to grow, but is dependent on manufacturer strategies, product plans, and perhaps most important, pricing which will be affected by likely changes in consumer incentives. Charge anxiety is a key issue and is being addressed by an improved public charging network. But consumers need more information on if and how EVs will meet their needs.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Current sales and forecast to 2030
• Government policy is clearly changing, with action from all three branches at the federal level, as well as changes at the state level
• An effective strategy requires more than “Throwing the Switch” at a later date when multiple factors align
• Scale can be your friend or foe
• How evolving technology can lower costPresenter

EV Market Update – There’s No Going Back Even as Regulatory Policy Makes a U-Turn
Sales of battery electrics (including PHEVs and EREVs) are growing globally, but the North American market is pulling back based on the removal of consumer incentives and the termination of emissions and fuel economy regulations in the US.
Interest in electric vehicles continues to grow among consumers, including prior EV buyers that are looking to capitalize on improving product. How will automakers price their products, and will they sell at high price in low volume (based on a short-term effort to reduce losses), or will they see the North American market as a means to increase global scale and reduce costs (leading to profitability down the road). Range and charge anxiety is being addressed by infrastructure providers and a range of automakers, with new products seeking to address consumer desires.
This webinar will focus on the following key topics:
• Current sales and forecast to 2030
• How the termination of federal incentives and regulations will affect the market
• How various automakers are reacting in the North American market
• Developments in infrastructure and the potential impact on the market
• How evolving battery technology and improved features can lower cost and influence demandPresenter
