Plugged-In: EV Collision Insights 2025 Year in Review

February 19, 2026

After several years of steady growth, the battery electric vehicle (BEV) market experienced significant volatility in 2025. Automotive manufacturers scaled back investments—including Ford with its F-150 Lightning end of production announcement—and the U.S. and Canada rescinded tax credits designed to boost consumer demand for BEVs. While brands like GM, Honda and Volkswagen experienced modest BEV sales gains, overall adoption slowed. In the U.S., BEV purchases declined by approximately 2% from 2024 and with more electrified alternatives, Tesla’s market share also dropped to 46.2% from 48.7% in 2024.
