U.S. new-car sales in 2024 continued to rise from their pandemic lows, bolstered by replenished inventories, higher incentives and surging demand for hybrid vehicles, automakers reported Friday. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2025/01/04/companies/us-carmakers-sales-2024-hybrids/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #business #companies #carmakers #evs #us #hybrids

Cheaper #Hybrids Are Dominating the Electrified #Car Market With Record Sales
New data from Q3 #2024 shows sales of non-luxury hybrid models rising to a record level, while the growth of full #EV continues to stall. https://www.thedrive.com/news/cheaper-hybrids-are-dominating-the-electrified-car-market-with-record-sales

#fedipower #China #carefficiencyrules

3 questions to those w/ robust knowledge on the matter:

On 01-Jan-2026, 🇨🇳 will implement much stricter car efficiency rules for #cars:
#CombustionEngines, #EVs, #hybrids.

Cars that do not fulfill these can either not be registered or have to buy carbon credits.

Q1: Is it true that next to no current US (incl Tesla), Japanese or European model fullfils these criteria?

Q2: How expensive are these carbon credits?

Q3: Is this limited to new cars?

TIA

Suzuki's Indian unit will supply its first-ever electric vehicle to Toyota, the two companies said in a statement on Wednesday, in a move that marks their first collaboration on green vehicles. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/business/2024/10/30/companies/suzuki-india-toyota-ev/ #business #companies #carmakers #cars #toyota #suzuki #electricvehicles #hybrids

Ha! I was only wondering about this myself over the last few days.

This is yet another reason to eschew the "self-charging EV" - the hybrid. They had their moment from 2000-2022 or so.

It's over - proper EVs cost the same now.

Hybrids are complex and, as we see here, inherently fragile. Toyota's Prius' only work because of Toyota's rabid pursuit of quality. Other manufacturers like MG, 😬.

PS all cars are bad.
