Electric vehicles are the future — but they’re not some far-off dream like flying cars. Rather, they represent the present as well as the possibilities to come. And they have a history that’s far deeper than you were likely aware.
In 2024, 10.5% of all new cars sold or leased in Delaware in 2024 were EVs, just above the national average. Battery electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles may have accounted for just 1% of all Delaware vehicles in 2023, according to the Delaware Department of Natural Resources and Environmental Control, but this figure is expected to increase. By the end of the decade, we could have well over 100,000 cars on Delaware roads running mostly or solely on electricity.
Many manufacturers are shifting to EVs in response to consumer demand motivated by a mix of environmental concerns, a desire to save money on gasoline and an interest in cutting-edge technology.
