The Tesla3 is the biggest component of US EV sales at the moment by a long way. The success of the model3 will drive the sector and sentiment in the US in the short to medium term IMO. The US economy, rising or falling oil prices and US GDP growth is likely going to impact on Tesla3 sales in 2019 IMO.Esh

"The big electric vehicles sales stories these days are generally about the Tesla Model 3 walloping the competition. Nonetheless, we like to go back to our roots and explore overall electric vehicle growth at least once a quarter. The problem is that almost all of the positivity comes from Tesla.

"As you can see above, several fully electric models saw their sales decline in the 4th quarter of 2018 versus the 4th quarter of 2017. Aside from the new models (Jaguar I-PACE and Honda Clarity EV), the only models that saw growth were the Tesla Model 3, Tesla Model S, Tesla Model X, and Nissan LEAF.

But they certainly did see a lot of growth.

Looking at the full year, it’s a similar story, but the BMW i3 saw slight growth and the Tesla Model S declined a bit. (Though, Tesla only publishes global figures, so our US figures are estimates and could well be a couple thousand off here or there.)

Admittedly, we don’t include sales data from Hyundai, Kia, and Fiat electric cars here — because they don’t publish or directly share their figures — but they are likely minimal and would not have notable influence on the overall EV sales results."
