U.S. EV Sales Shock Industry

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, shares insight into Cadillac’s unexpected rise as a U.S. leader in electric vehicle (EV) sales. Once seen as a fading luxury brand, Cadillac now outsells BMW, Mercedes, Audi, and Porsche in the EV space, with nearly 25% of its new cars being electric. McIntyre notes that 70% of Cadillac EV buyers came from competing brands, including 10% from Tesla — signaling a major shift in the competitive landscape. He points to this as proof that legacy automakers can rebound through smart investments in EV innovation.
