US EV Sales November 2025: Complete Model-by-Model Breakdown & Key Trends

November 2025 marked a pivotal moment for the U.S. electric vehicle market. With the federal $7,500 EV tax credit officially gone after September 30, buyers hit pause, inventories climbed, and transaction prices rose. Total new vehicle sales landed at 1.27 million units, down 6.8% year-over-year, while pure battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) held around 6% market share — roughly 76,000 units sold nationwide.

Tesla remained dominant but not untouched. General Motors emerged as the strongest non-Tesla performer, while hybrids and plug-in hybrids surged more than 40% in many segments.

Key Takeaways from November 2025

• Affordable EVs under $40,000 now make up over 40% of sales
  (Equinox EV, Model 3, Model Y RWD LR).
• Korean brands suffered the largest one-month drop ever
  after losing federal incentives.
• General Motors overtook Ford for the #2 EV spot in America
  for the first time.
• Tesla’s U.S. EV market share stayed below 50%
  for the second straight month.
• Hybrids + Plug-In Hybrids outsold pure EVs
  for the first time since early 2023.

The road ahead remains electric — just a bit slower and more deliberate than the tax-credit-fueled rush of 2024 and early 2025. With new affordable models arriving in 2026 (Chevrolet Bolt EUV return, Tesla Model 2 whispers, Volvo EX30, and more), the next chapter will be even more exciting.
