Also possible is that a slowdown in the steady improvement of gas-only vehicles will accompany the EV progress as the current flurry of announcements on new electric platforms, models and battery-production facilities reflect a tectonic shift of research and development efforts toward EVs.īelow are some of the new EVs confirmed for production in the next few years, excluding small-batch exotics. Another is that EVs will get a lot better: The EV you buy or lease today could be like an iPhone 5 in 2025 or 2030.
