Sadly, the axis are not annotated well (at least in this screenshot). Latest data point is 2023, and 2019 is the last year where less than 50 models were available.
And as of this site, the US currently has less than 100 EV models for sale. I’m not sure how accurate this is, though.

It seems to me the US market is clearly less attractive for consumers, probably due to low competition, many of the best options we have here in EU aren’t even available in USA. What they do have however, are stupidly massive pickup trucks with next to no safety regulations, that are illegal in most parts of the world, and would probably be impossible to sell even if they weren’t?!
And then they complain their cars don’t sell in EU? 😱 🤡 🤣When reading this post a few minutes ago, I decided to find out how many EV models there currently are to choose from.
And I was impressed that the number surpassed 350 models by 2023, there might be now more than 500 models available (that’s just a guess, though).
Forbidden?
I’ve edited the link, maybe it works now
Sorry the link sort of works, it’s the stupid auto text that says “forbidden”, and there are no comments on the post.
But i’m not logged in with the link, so no commenting through it…Unfortunately not. Linking in lemmy is weird?
Yeah, lemmy linking can be “interesting”, as each post has a different URL on each instance
