IEA Global Electric Vehicle Outlook 2022

Few areas in the world of clean energy are as dynamic as the electric car market. Sales of electric vehicles (EVs) doubled in 2021 from the previous year to a new record of 6.6 million. Back in 2012, just 120 000 electric cars were sold worldwide. Nearly 10% of global car sales were electric in 2021, four times the market share in 2019. This brought the total number of electric cars on the world’s roads to about 16.5 million, triple the amount in 2018. Global sales of electric cars have kept rising strongly in 2022, with 2 million sold in the first quarter, up 75% from the same period in 2021. Here are the key insights from the latest IEA Global EV OutlookThe success of EVs is being driven by multiple factors. Sustained policy support is the main pillar. Public spending on subsidies and incentives for EVs nearly doubled in 2021 to nearly USD 30 billion.The IEA Announced Pledges Scenario (APS), which is based on existing climate-focused policy pledges and announcements, presumes that EVs represent more than 30% of vehicles sold globally in 2030 across all modes (excluding two- and three-wheelers). While impressive, this is still well short of the 60% share needed by 2030 to align with a trajectory that would reach net zero CO2 emissions by 2050. Under current policy plans reflected in the IEA Stated Policies Scenario (STEPS), EVs reach just over 20% of sales in 2030, increasing the stock 11-fold from today’s levels to 200 million vehicles.

More US States Planing to Ban Gas-Powered Cars

(December 2022) Following Massachusetts and California, New York has become the third state in US that announced a ban on new internal combustion gas-powered vehicles sales by 2035. Currently there are 15 states that have adopted California’s Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) program, and two more that accept California’s Low Emission Vehicle (LEV) regulations. Together, those 15 states make up around 40% of the US passenger car market. California as the largest electric vehicle market (38% of the country’s EV sales were in California in 2021) adopted the strongest regulations for transition to zero vehicle emission target, which most likely will affect other states and federal government regulations.

Semiconductor Shortage Crushes Global Car Production //knoema.de/ykahxrc/semiconductor-shortage-crushes-global-car-production 2021-12-06T11:32:18Z Misha Gusev knoema.de://knoema.de/user/1000560
Semiconductor Shortage Crushes Global Car Production

(15 November 2021) Amid the global semiconductor shortage, car manufacturers around the world have reduced production or even completely stopped car assembly lines. IHS Markit estimates that in January though September 2021, over 7 million light vehicle units were not produced due to the semiconductor shortage. In this dashboard, Knoema's team has put together monthly statistics on passenger car production in the largest car manufacturing countries — China, Japan, Germany, India, and the United States — which together account for over 60% of global passenger car production.The latest data for August and September 2021 shows that China and Japan are weathering the crisis with the lowest output losses: 11% and 16% year-over-year, respectively.Passenger car manufacturing in Germany, India, and the U.S. dropped between 28% and 32% year-over-year in recent months.The decline in global car manufacturing has the potential to hit the global economy hard. Vehicle manufacturing's share in GDP exceeds 4% in Germany and is over 2% in Japan and China. In addition, disruption in global vehicle manufacturing can have significant negative indirect economic impacts — for example, 12% of steel produced globally is used in car manufacturing.

United States: A Price Storm in Used Car and Car Rental Markets

(17 June 2021) With the US vaccination progress continuing and many anti-COVID restrictions easing, American's driving activity is recovering, and the increased mobility combined with stimulus checks, pent-up demand, and high credit availability have quickly translated into an increase in car sales. Many Americans wanting to buy a car are stumbled on car shortages at auto dealerships, though. This growing demand and lack of supply have already translated into sharp price growth in the used car and car rental markets. According to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics' Consumer Price Index (CPI) report, the price growth for used cars accounted for about one-third of the overall increase in CPI in May. In March 2021, new light vehicle sales in the US increased to 18 million units (SAAR) — the highest monthly sales level since June 2005.US car manufacturers not only failed to increase production, but in many cases had to pause assembly lines due to the semiconductor shortage. Car imports from Canada and Mexico — two largest sources of US car imports — also declined.The mismatch between demand and supply brought domestic car inventories and inventory-to-sales ratio to a record low in April 2021.The shift of consumer demand to used cars and rental cars led to price hikes. The Manheim Used Vehicle Value Index, which measures wholesale pricing and typically runs several months ahead of the behavior of the consumer price index for used cars, suggests that the price of used cars will likely grow further in the coming months.

China: Electric Vehicle Trends a Double Victory for Metals Powerhouse //knoema.de/wyrizwg/china-electric-vehicle-trends-a-double-victory-for-metals-powerhouse 2021-05-26T10:29:12Z Misha Gusev knoema.de://knoema.de/user/1000560
China: Electric Vehicle Trends a Double Victory for Metals Powerhouse

(12 February 2020) Tesla by far and away leads in sales of electric vehicles globally and now not only has company CEO Elon Musk thrown down for a 40x increase in annual production but in doing so could escalate natural resource and geopolitical pressures. Electric vehicles (EVs) experienced record sales growth in the second half of 2020, and Musk is perfectly poised to use that momentum to scale towards his production goal of 20 million EVs per year by 2030. Aggressive production plans from Tesla and other EV manufacturers coupled with unprecedented growth of sales raises concerns, however, about the sufficiency of known metals reserves and current metals supplies.Estimates from MINING.COM show that if Tesla reaches its target annual production rate, Tesla alone will consume more than 30% of current global nickel production, almost 60% of global cobalt production, over 90% of global graphite production, and 165% of global lithium production. The obvious exceptions to this outcome include changes in metals production and/or required EV manufacturing inputs.Another critical unknown is the absolute reserve volume of key metals as opposed to known reserves and whether EV demand could outstrip reserves. Extrapolation of MINING.COM estimates to accommodate a fortyfold increase of global EV production from Tesla alone shows that the world would run out of nickel and cobalt. EV production requirements would require tripling known reserves of nickel and more than doubling known reserves of cobalt. Any EV outlook needs to also account for the geopolitics of business, particularly in light of the trade tensions between the US and China in recent years. China is not only the largest EV market but also the only country that appears in every top 10 list of countries with the largest reserves and production of metals currently required for EV manufacturing. This fact implies that China's natural resource base and production capacities make it the most sustainable EV manufacturer to met Musk's production aims.

From Petroleum to Electricity: Global Vehicle Market Transformation Accelerating

(8 December 2020) Over the last several years industry insiders, investors, urban planners, and environmentalists alike have debated over scenarios for a global transition from 'classic' internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles to electric vehicles (EVs) and the impact on the automotive industry as well as the global energy balance. Since EVs were then and are still now a relatively new phenomenon, predictions about the path to transport electrification have been met with a healthy dose of skepticism. With the latest data on global EV sales, the days of skepticism have ended.Sales of electric vehicles grew 127 percent year-over-year in October, according to InsideEVs, representing 4.9 percent of global passenger cars sales. In other words, for the month of October one out of every 20 cars sold globally was an electrical vehicle.While global sales of traditional ICE cars are still recovering from the disruptive impact of COVID-19, global EV sales returned to pre-COVID rates as of July. In fact, during the first 10 months of 2020, 2.1 million electric vehicles were sold globally, a 22 percent increase over the same period of 2019. In contrast, ICE vehicle sales are down 18 percent for the same period.

Consumer vehicle purchase intent by manufacturer and segment

Edmunds.com's "Consumer Vehicle Purchase Intent by Manufacturer" for a specified period is the percentage of visitors to www.edmunds.com who perform activities on that website that are highly correlated with a purchase of that model within the following three months (as determined by Edmunds' statistical analysis of visitor activities), as a share of visitors who perform similar activities for all models that are in the same manufacturer segment. Edmunds.com believes that "purchase intent" is a metric for measuring a model's share of consumer demand. While actual model sales are affected by several factors other than consumer demand (including model supply, configuration availability, incentive changes, dealer marketing strategies and fleet sales), purchase intent is a good predictor of near-term consumer sales.

Worldwide: Prospects for the Future of Vehicle Production

(10 June 2011) While the decline in demand during the world economic crisis of 2008-2009 caused troubles for many car producers, especially in the United States, Europe, and Japan, global long term prospects for the automotive industry remain promising. Car sales in emerging countries are well below market saturation levels. Cases in point: India and China. These two countries alone represent almost 40 percent of the world's population and today there are less than 200 passenger cars per 1,000 population.

China: Car Sales Rebounding for the First Time in Two Years

Beijing's stimulus measures and COVID-19 containment measures have helped the country's leading car production provinces—Shaanxi, Zhejiang, Shandong, Jilin, and Liaoning—to increase production in April by more than 20 percent compared to the same month one year ago. Car sales increased to 1.9 million units, which while representing zero growth from on year ago, it also marks the first time since July 2018 that car sales did not decline and brings sales within reach of the 2.2 million unit monthly average recorded since 2014.While the impact of COVID-19 on China's auto industry was dramatic—car sales decreased 80 percent in February and 46 percent in March on a year-over-year basis—the general sales slump pre-dates COVID-19. Sales decreased by 8 percent in 2019, and 3 percent in 2018.

Top Vehicle Manufacturers in the US Market, 1961-2016

Over the last three years, car sales in the US market have set new all-time records and included a collection of manufacturers that extends well beyond the American classics. In 2015, vehicle sales in the US reached nearly 17.5 million units, a growth of 5.7 percent from 2014 and 25,000 more vehicles than the record setting sales in 2005. The year 2000 marked a turning point in the US auto industry: it was the last year that General Motors and Ford Motor Company combined made up at least 50 percent of the US market share. GM’s share of the US market has decreased almost 3 times since its peak of 50.7 percent in 1962, falling to 17 percent in 2016. Ford Motor Company’s market share has likewise fallen but relatively less, from a high of 29.3 percent in 1961 to 14.6 percent in 2016. Asian auto manufacturing giants Toyota, Honda, and Nissan have been behind most of the market erosion of traditional US manufacturers. Toyota was an early mover, capturing American hearts with Lexus, its luxury business model. In 1980, Toyota’s market share was a mere 6.6 percent; by 2009, it reached 16.7 percent. Then, entered Infiniti Nissan, which nearly tripled its market share from 2.8 in 1978 to 8.8 in 2016, somewhat at the expense of Toyota. It is interesting to note the stability of Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA), which unlike the other American classics, has for 55 years maintained a market position in the range of 10.5 to 13.5 percent.

The Global Electric Car Market

Electric cars constitute less than 0.1 percent of the vehicle market today, but market and regulatory forces all but ensure electric vehicles will be the future of the auto industry. According to the 2016 Global Electric Vehicle Outlook from the International Energy Agency, the global electric car stock has grown rapidly since 2010, from about 2,000 cars in 2005 to nearly 1.3 million in 2015. The boom in the electric car industry is usually attributed to three factors:The increasing recovery cost globally for fossil fuels used in conventional vehicles;The environmentally-friendly potential of electric vehicles, which produce fewer CO2 emissions than gasoline cars, aiding efforts to reduce greenhouse gases that contribute to climate change; The lower fuel cost for electric vehicles in some markets, particularly in the United States. Regulatory incentives, infrastructure to support electric vehicles, market size, and other factors contribute to a varied adoption rate worldwide, creating pockets of electric-friendly communities and powerful incentives for auto manufacturers to capture early adopters for their electric vehicle (EV) product lines.  Global electric car market. The United States, China, and Japan lead the world based on electric car stock, making up more than two-thirds of the total global electric car stock. Battery electric cars represent about 60 percent of the global EV market. China dominates this market segment, outstripping Japan in 2014 and the US in 2015. Meanwhile, Norway has the largest domestic market share of battery electric cars, with 0.23 percent of the country’s cars being electric. Norway was also ranked third globally in 2015 based on the number of newly registered battery electric cars. US electric car market. If China dominates the market for battery vehicle segment, the US is the all-time leader in the hybrid electric car market, a market led by Toyota, Ford, and Lexus. The Toyota Prius is the best selling model despite sales that have declined by more than 30 percent since 2012. The Prius decline is not unique: 28 of the 36 hybrid models in the US hybrid vehicle market have experienced negative sales growth during the last three years. What market share hybrids are losing, plug-in electric vehicles are gaining. US sales of the Tesla Model S grew from roughly 2,000 cars per year in 2012 to nearly 30,000 cars in 2016.

World Passenger Car Production

Passenger cars are defined as motor vehicles having at least four wheels and no more than eight seats at the same time. They are mainly used to carry passengers. The data in the dashboard is on global, regional and country level. Car production represents over 74% of total vehicles produced in the world. More than half has been manufactured in Asia-Oceania region since 2010. The explanation of this trend is simple. China has held top positions in world passenger cars manufacturing ranking for 10 years.

Global Petrol Prices

All world countries have an access to the same petroleum prices as on international markets. However, countries' governments decide to impose different taxes according to their economic policies. As a result, the retail prices of gasoline differ considerably across countries. Explore latest global petrol prices on the charts and a map below and see how low gasoline can cost in producing countries in South America and the Middle East in contrast with the other world. In some cases, like in Venezuela, the government even subsidizes gasoline and therefore people over there pay close to nothing to drive their cars.

Vehicle Days to Turn: Subarus Spend Least Time in Dealers' Inventories

Auto dealerships purchase cars direct from manufacturers to resell to final consumers. But, vehicles may spend days, weeks, and even months in some cases in dealers' inventories before being purchased by the ultimate owner. Dealers seek the fastest inventory turnover possible, making 'days to turn'—the number of days a vehicle was in dealer's inventory before being sold—a critical metric for dealers.In 2016, Subarus were the quickest sold automobiles in the world: dealers required an average of 27 days to sell a Subaru, according to Edmunds.Cars produced by Toyota, Honda, and Mercedes-Benz—which are among the world's safest vehicles of 2017—also sold relatively quickly, each requiring less than two months.In contrast, vehicles manufactured by Mitsubishi and Chrysler Group lasted more than three months in dealer inventories. Models from GM and Ford, the top vehicle manufacturers in the US, sold in 78 days on average.The days to turn range extends from compact trucks, requiring just 35 days, to large cars, at 96 days.

The World's Top Car-Owning Countries

The United States is often criticized for its perceived nonchalance toward air pollution despite persistent statements to the contrary by the current presidential administration. The US remains the number one contributor globally to harmful chemicals in the air, with the fossil-fuel consuming transportation industry being a primary emission source. With more than 250 million vehicles on US roads, the US surpasses even China based on total vehicles in use despite China's much larger population...at least for now. China has already surpassed the US in annual new car sales. Examining the data on a per capita basis reveals another side to the story. The US is ranked a surprising 36th globally in terms of passenger cars on the road per 1,000 people. Other Western countries with more passenger cars per capita than the US include the likes of New Zealand, Canada, Italy, Australia, Germany, and the UK, each with more than 500 passenger cars on the road per 1,000 people compared to 379 vehicles per 1,000 people in the US. Behind the numbers are numerous pardaxoical trends that mirror the income levels and price sensitivity of consumers, tax incentives and industry promotions, and fuel costs and public transportation infrastructure conditions, among other factors. For example, while total passenger cars in use in the US declined steadily from 2008 - when the global financial crisis tightened consumer disretionary spending - through 2014, total commerical vehicles in use continued to increase, even during periods of rising fuel prices. Definitions Vehicles in use: Vehicles in use are composed of all registered vehicles on the road. To calculate the motorization rate, population data published by the United Nations are used. Passenger cars: Passenger cars are road motor vehicles, other than a motor cycle, intended for the carriage of passengers and designed to seat no more than nine persons (including the driver). The term “passenger cars” therefore covers taxis and hired passenger cars, provided that they have fewer than ten seats. This category may also include pick-ups or microcars (need no permit to be driven). Commercial vehicles: Commercial vehicles include light commercial vehicles, heavy trucks, coaches and buses (except for some countries in which the buses or heavy trucks data are not available).

World's Safest Vehicles of 2017

Even as the design of cars become increasingly safety focused and even automated, speed, texting, and driving while under the influence contribute to a rising number of deaths from motor vehicle crashes, particularly in the United States. Asian car manufacturers nearly swept the 2016 motor vehicle safety rankings by the US Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS), securing nine of the top 10 spots. Only Daimler's (Germany) Mercedes-Benz GLE-Class joined Toyota, Hyundai, Subaru, and Honda in the top 10. The IIHS testing of new cars in the North American market covered three safety components:Crashworthiness, a measure of how well a vehicle protects its occupants in a crash;Crash prevention and mitigation, including all systems that warn a driver or introduce automatic breaking to avoid or mitigate a frontal collision;Child seat anchors, which assesses the usability of child seat attachment hardware. This year’s crashworthiness tests were distinctive from years past because of new, more stringent regulations related to vehicles’ front optics performance. The IIHS test is the world's first official rating of reliability and quality of the front headlights based on how well a particular vehicle illuminates the road at night and the degree to which short-range headlights "blind" oncoming drivers.A slim majority (52.4%) of cars tested received poor or marginal ratings. Only seven models earned top scores; namely, Chevy Volt, Honda Ridgeline, Hyundai Elantra and Santa Fe, Subaru Legacy, Toyota Prius V, and Volvo XC60. Car safety features and overall design along with traffic speed and the use of seatbelts are considered central factors in the number of traffic deaths worldwide. According to a 2008 estimate from the World Health Organization, 1.2 million people died globally in motor vehicle crashes. North America, Western Europe, and Australia have the safest roads, with the total number of traffic deaths ranging from 2.7 to 12 deaths per 100,000 people.As manufacturers have enhanced car safety features, countries have reported persistently declining numbers of deaths from road accidents over the last decade, according to the International Transport Forum.In most countries, the maximum permitted speed in urban areas does not exceed 60 km/h (about 37 mph) and the majority of people use seatbelts while driving.Despite a relatively low number of traffic deaths compared to peers globally, US regulators and the US National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have reportedly taken note of the 14 percent increase in the number of motor vehicle deaths in the US since 2014 and are exploring potential underlying causes and the role that new technology—including autonomous vehicle technology—could play in reversing the trend. Methodology note: IIHS simplified its estimation methodology to more clearly distinguish among the tested vehicles on the basis of numerical values, replacing letter grades, and to shift to a numerical overall rating. The Institute now uses a 4-point grading scale—poor (1), marginal (2), acceptable (3), and good (4)—for crashworthiness, crash avoidance and mitigation, and child seat anchors. To appraise front crash prevention, the Institute uses a 3-level scale: basic (1-2), advanced (2-3), and superior (4-6).

CO2 Emissions of Newly Registered Cars in Europe //knoema.de/qjbgyqb/co2-emissions-of-newly-registered-cars-in-europe 2017-11-08T13:55:33Z Alex Kulikov knoema.de://knoema.de/user/1847910
CO2 Emissions of Newly Registered Cars in Europe

Information that EU member states submit annually per Regulation (EC) No 443/2009 to the European Commission and onward to the European Environment Agency (EEA) on newly registered passenger cars provide a unique opportunity to analyze CO2 emissions. The data reveal thought-provoking trends from the perspective of purchasing patterns of lowest to highest emission cars and the corresponding potential contribution of each make and model to air pollution.Premium-class sport cars are the ‘dirtiest’ based on CO2 emissions, with Bugatti vehicles—each emitting more than half a kilogram of CO2 per kilometer (km)—at the top. Yet, the potential contribution of these cars to the climate change is restrained by the limited number on the roads. Member countries reported a total of only five Bugatti new car registrations during 2015. Likewise, only one Pagani, the second dirtiest car in the class, was registered last year.In contrast, cars with relatively low CO2 emissions are, as a rule, more popular and consequently pollute more air in total. For example, while Ford cars are among the ten ‘cleanest’ cars—emitting around 100 grams of CO2 per km—with more than 1 million new Ford cars registered in Europe last year, the contribution from this make to atmospheric pollution is far more significant than that of Ferrari, the most popular premium-class sport car.Excluding electric cars, hybrid cars, such as the BMW I (23g of CO2 per km), Fisker (53g of CO2 per km) and Smart (93g of CO2 per km), have the lowest CO2 emissions among passenger vehicles. However, just as too few of the dirtiest premium-class sport cars are registered each year to dramatically contribute to air pollution, too few of the cleanest cars are purchased to combat climate change. At least, for now. The EEA data also reveal interesting differences among the EU member countries. Germany recorded the highest average CO2 emissions per new passenger car registered in 2015. Residents of other North-East countries such as Poland, Latvia and Estonia showed similar car buying preferences. Residents of South-West Europe, stretching from Portugal to Malta to Greece and even Croatia, knowingly or not, tended toward cleaner cars.

45th Tokyo Motor Show

How will automobiles evolve?  Certainly, there is no single, simple answer.  Although in the not so distant future motor vehicles may become very different from what we are familiar with today, the fact is that they move people—and not just in a physical sense.  They create exciting possibilities and offer continuous opportunity.  In their future evolution, automobiles will be able to move much more than just people and objects: they will be able to move society forward, transcending previous limitations to provide even greater possibilities.  That’s why the Tokyo Motor Show will look beyond motor vehicles themselves and transform itself into an event where cutting-edge knowledge comes together, giving rise to wholly new opportunities for innovation and business, where the mobility sector can discover its next directions in the context of our rapidly changing world.  It’s time to shift to high gear and set out on a borderless journey to redefine the very meaning of “automobile. Event Holder: Japan Automobile Manufacturers AssociationDate of Event: 27 October - 5 November 2017Venue: Tokyo Big Sight, 3-11-1 Ariake, Koto-ku, Tokyo (http://www.bigsight.jp/)

LMC Automotive Production & Sales, 2015

LMC Automotive in partnerships with Oxford Economics and JATO Dynamics provides the highest quality global sales and production data and forecasts for light vehicles and heavy trucks. As motor vehicles are big-ticket consumer durables, monthly sales figures in particular are seen as an indicator of broader economic health of a given country. On this dashboard the latest LMC public data for Global light vehicle sales*, passenger car sales in Western Europe, and light vehicle production in North America is presented.  According to LMC's numbers, the global light vehicle sales in 2014 exceeded 87.3 million cars, 27% of which were sold in China. Car sales in most regions continued to grow in April 2015: +1.6% year-over-year worldwide, +4.6% in the U. S., +7% in Western Europe. However, in Eastern Europe, Japan, Brazil and Argentina light vehicle sales have declined sharply.   In the U.S. and Canada the total light vehicle production in 2014 increased to 12.7 million units. The largest U.S. car producer according to 2014 numbers is still GM Group (2.5 million units produced), whereas the second largest is  Ford (2.1 million units produced). Ford F-series Lt. Duty remains the most popular light duty truck in America, with overall production of 496 thousand units in 2014. Toyota Camry and Chevrolet Silverado took the second and the third place respectively in vehicle model's ranking by units produced (see the ranking and bubble-tree at the bottom of the page). The most rapidly growing U. S. car producer in 2014 was Elon Musk's Tesla Motors, which increased production by 28.6% compared to 2013.

U.S. Driving Season And The Petroleum Consumption //knoema.de/riwidmd/u-s-driving-season-and-the-petroleum-consumption 2015-05-06T14:52:29Z Alex Kulikov knoema.de://knoema.de/user/1847910
U.S. Driving Season And The Petroleum Consumption

By the end of 2013 in the US was about 256 million motor vehicles (including motorcycles, according to the data of the US Federal Highway Administration, FHWA). A growing number of automobiles and trucks was one of the main drivers of increased petroleum consumption over the years. The financial crisis of 2008 caused a sharp increase in demand for energy-efficient engines and alternative fuels. The overall demand for motor gasoline in the US has still not recovered to pre-crisis levels. However, each year petroleum consumption is increasing during the driving season, from the late-spring, during the summer vacation season until the mid-autumn. Total demand for petroleum products in the US increase about 2% in Q3 relative to Q2 over the years on average. This seasonality in consumption patterns partially explains recent rise in gasoline and crude oil prices.
