Padilla places hold on Trump EPA nominees over efforts to ax California EV mandate
- California experienced a slight decline in zero-emission vehicle sales in Q1 2025 despite a nationwide increase in electric vehicle trends.
- This decline followed a pause in Tesla Model Y production and attributed drops in Tesla registrations, while the overall EV market expanded with more available models.
- Tesla registrations in California fell by 21.5%, but non-Tesla EV registrations grew 14%, totaling around 96,416 to 100,326 ZEV sales in the quarter.
- Nearly 21% of new auto sales in California were fully electric, with 28.9% of US ZEV sales occurring in the state, while Kelley Blue Book reported an 11.4% year-over-year national EV sales increase in Q1.
- The sales pattern suggests current economic uncertainty and shifting consumer preferences may slow California’s EV growth despite overall US market expansion.
