Featured Washington State Plug_in Data

The numbers amaze me. I am in Pierce co and moving soon to Thurston co. I am retired so do not commute but I have not seen these cars so must pay closer attention. I will add to the list as I am giving up my Prius and looking at the Volt 2017, hopefully early spring, The 2017 will have Advanced Radar Cruise Control like I now enjoy so much in the Prius. Wish our state would join the eleven states on the California qualifications so we would get the better warranties and earlier sales.

 

Thanks I did not know of the WHR. I signed up. The incentive is good for the base Volt but alas my advanced model will be over that limit.

 

Sales of EVs Hit 150,000 In California, Almost 1 Of Every 6 Sold Worldwide

My guess is then california is 15% of world wide plug-in sales, 42% of US.
Washington would then be 1.3% of world wide, and 3.6% of US sales.

We have a clue of who did better than Washington.

California Leads Nation In Tesla Model S Sales, But Which Other States Are In Top 10?
For tesla Florida 7.3%, Texas 5.8% to Washington's 4.6%. The volt does well in Michigan, the leaf in Georgia and Tennessee. I would bet that those states along with Illinois, New York, New Jersey, and Arizona make up at least 33% which added to California make up three quarters of plug-ins sold in the US.

Florida, Texas, and New York make it because they are populated states with lots of cars.
