One Year After EV Tax Credit Ended, Electric Future in Question

Original: One year after the end of the EV tax credit, is the future still electric? https://www.npr.org/2026/09/30/nx-s1-5979915/

A year after the US federal EV tax credit expired, NPR examines whether electric vehicle sales and consumer interest can sustain momentum without the subsidy. The report looks at EV and hybrid sales trends in 2026 and asks whether the shift away from gasoline cars continues now that buyers no longer receive federal incentives.

Why now: The anniversary of the tax credit's expiration is prompting a reassessment of EV adoption trends in the US market.
