Abstract
Passenger Vehicles are the primary commute transportation in the United States, especially in rural and small urban areas. The increasing need of conventional vehicles bring us critical problems, such as increment of gas demand, climate change and environment pollution. Although other power sources are suggested in replacing gasoline powered vehicles, for instance, natural gas and solar, people are more willing to support electric-powered vehicles for its cleanness and efficiency. This paper looks into the electric vehicle market in the United States at present, and builds two models to predict the market of electric vehicles by using historical sales data and factors that might affect the future sales. It also discusses the future of EV market from investors and consumers' perspectives.
