Recent press reports [[link removed]] have raised the question of whether California will miss the governor’s ZEV sales mandates, currently set at requiring that 35% of new light duty vehicle (LDV) sales in 2026 be qualifying plug-in electric vehicles (PEVs), 68% by 2030, and 100% by 2035. These questions are based on recent Energy Commission sales data showing that the annual PEV market share essentially showed no movement, notching up to only 25.3% in 2024 from 25.0% in 2023. In total, the Energy Commission data shows only 2,091 more PEVs were sold in California in 2024.

Data in the latest report from California New Car Dealers Association [[link removed]](CNCDA), however, indicates this sales plateau is not just a temporary glitch. PEV market share has instead been largely static over the past 8 quarters, averaging 25.2% with a variance of only 0.1%.
