In Norway, EVs went from under 10% to over 90% of new cars sold in under a decade.[a]

It seems to have happened very gradually, then suddenly. Tick, tick, tick... Ka-Boom!

California and other states seem to be in the early stages of the same adoption curve.

I own two EVs. I bought the first one three years ago as a test. Two years later, I was so satisfied with it that I bought a second one. In my experience, EVs are far superior to gas-powered cars -- so much better, in fact, that I hope never again to buy a gas-powered car!

Based on the adoption curves we're seeing and my own experience, I'd expect more than 90% of all new cars sold in the US to be EVs within the next 10-15 years.
