These days, the popularity of electric cars is increasing, and according to a new report published today, the sales of Tesla cars in the United States in the first quarter of 2023 exceeded the total sales of 18 other car manufacturers. There are several reasons for this.
The increase in popularity of electric cars is not only due to environmental concerns, but various factors are involved. One of the most important of them is general advertising and the other reason is the tax credits that are being implemented in many countries. Of course, the subsidies given to electric cars have been reduced recently, but this issue has not had much effect on the sales of these cars around the world. In the meantime, the sales of Tesla cars have grown more.
The United States is one of the countries that provides tax credits to electric cars, and this has led to an increase in the sale of these cars in the American market in the first quarter of 2023. The tax credit for electric cars in the US has increased to $7,500, and that’s why many people prefer to buy electric cars instead of gasoline cars.
Although the price gap between electric cars and conventional cars is gradually decreasing, the biggest obstacle that electric cars have to overcome is the distance traveled or the range of the car.
Of course, it is expected that with the development of battery manufacturing technology, the range difference between electric and conventional cars will disappear in the coming years. However, the biggest advantage of Tesla cars over other electric cars is their range. This company has managed to dominate the American market and now the sales of this company’s cars in the US in the first quarter of 2023 have exceeded the total sales of 18 other car manufacturers.
Tesla’s sales in the US in the first quarter of 2023 increased by 79% compared to last year and reached 184,800 units. Meanwhile, the overall growth of the electric car market was 74%. The most popular Tesla car in the first quarter of 2023 in America was Model Y. In second place is Tesla Model 3, which is the cheapest electric car of this company. Interestingly, these two models accounted for half of Tesla’s sales in the first quarter of 2023.
