Electric vehicles (EVs) have been the focus of a lot of attention recently. You’ve probably heard that EV demand is down or that charging stations are hard to find.
The reality is a bit more complex. While growth in EV sales slowed down at the start of 2023, more EVs were sold in the U.S. in December 2023 than in any other month in history. In fact, the last time gas-powered cars had as high of a growth rate as EVs was back in 2017, which is the same year we issued our very first Charging Forward Report.
Regardless of EV sales trends, our commitment hasn’t changed since our founding 17 years ago: empowering our customers to connect with EV drivers where and when they want to charge with reliable, flexible and future-ready charging solutions.
1, 2 ChargePoint network, Jan. 2024
Our own in-house analysis reveals that nearly 2 million drivers plugged into a ChargePoint station in 2023, a 50% increase over 2022.1 There were also around 60 million charging sessions on the ChargePoint network, up 53% over the previous year and almost exactly aligned with increasing EV demand (more on that inside this report, which features more mythbusting than ever before).2
From drivers to businesses and institutions of all sizes, our goal is to make it easier for everyone to go electric. E-mobility is here, it’s accelerating, and it’s the future of transportation.
Charge on,
President and CEO, ChargePoint
