Hybrid & Electric Vehicle Manufacturing in the US - Industry Research Report

Plugged In: Due to Continued Tax Incentives and Rising Fuel Costs, Industry Revenue is Expected to Expand

The Hybrid and Electric Vehicle Manufacturing industry has boomed as the use of renewable energy sources surged in popularity. Hybrid electric vehicles (HEV) and electric vehicles (EV), including plug-in electric vehicles (PEV) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEV), have seen a dramatic rise in sales amid elevated oil and gas prices. With concerns about the environment, new entrants continue to flood in looking to establish market share. New government incentives and infrastructure funding have increased the accessibility of electric and hybrid vehicles domestically. Industry-wide revenue has increased at an annualized 29.6% to $88.8 billion over the past five years, including a 24.7% rise in 2023 alone. Despite rising demand, operators suffer from extremely high purchase costs, leading to profit accounting for only a small portion of revenue.

This industry primarily manufactures hybrid and electric automobiles that use one or more electric motors for propulsion. A hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) is a type of a vehicle that combines a conventional internal combustion engine (ICE) propulsion system with an electric propulsion system. The most common form of HEV is the hybrid electric car, though hybrid electric trucks (pickups and tractors) and SUVs also exist.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
