Boosting EV sales and increasing general demand from buyers is a big challenge for manufacturers producing EVs. More than 90% of the cars in the U.S are gasoline powered vehicles, also known as ICE vehicles, making it challenging to turn the tide. Many people have expressed their dislike of EVs and like owning ICE cars due to the familiarity, reliability, and convenient aspects of them

The automotive industry has seen a surge in the production and availability of EVs. Not only have EV focused manufacturers such as Tesla produced more EVs, but many regular manufacturers have begun to build and sell EVs of their own including hybrid powered vehicles and fully electric vehicles

Most EVs on the market are zero emission vehicles which means they produce zero carbon dioxide emissions. This impacts the environment in a positive way since reducing CO2 emissions contributes greatly to mitigating climate change and helps reduce global warming

Batteries in EVs may become an issue in the future. The batteries used in current EVs are very heavy and also very expensive. Since EVs are still so new, there is no track record or guarantee that EV batteries will last long periods of time which is a problem for buyers as well as manufacturers. If the batteries turn out to be unreliable, this will equate to high repair costs which is something nobody wants

The charging infrastructure has seen a major expansion over the last decade. As more EVs are distributed out, it forces the government to act on building more charging stations. More recently, EV owners now have the option to install charging ports at their homes, making it far more convenient for EV owners to charge their vehicles

EVs can save money for buyers in many ways. EVs are much cheaper to maintain than ICE cars due to them having less parts that need maintaining and could break. EVs also save significant amounts of money from getting gas since it does not use gasoline. Some states also include tax credits and incentives for buying an EV which can save additional money

A major challenge for manufacturers is the driving range of their EVs. Most EVs on the market have limited range and some have less range than what you would get in a traditional ICE car. Manufacturers face the challenge of increasing the range of their vehicles without drastically increasing prices so they can make their cars more appealing purchases to buyers

Despite the increase of charging stations, it is still no where near enough as more people switch to an EV. This is a potential problem in the future since the government and automakers must find ways of having a similar number of charging stations to gas stations without knocking down existing gas stations. Finding the right balance between the two will most likely be a potential issue
