Gibrid avtomobillar EV o'tish davrida bardoshli yo'lni ochadi, Sanoat insights oshkor

In the midst of the automotive industry’s rapid shift towards full elektr transport vositalari (EV), experts suggest that gasoline-electric hybrid vehicles might have a more enduring role than initially anticipated.

Prominent automakers such as Ford, Toyota, and Stellantis are charting a course that involves producing and marketing hundreds of thousands of hybrid vehicles within the United States over the upcoming five years. This strategy targets both retail and commercial customers who seek a sustainable mobility solution but remain hesitant to fully embrace pure EVs.

Tim Ghriskey, Senior Portfolio Strategist at Ingalls & Snyder, a New York-based investment management firm, comments, “Hybrids emerge as a viable alternative to fully electric vehicles and are likely to attract a broader customer base.”

Consumer interest in hybrids is resurging due to a less rapid surge in demand for pure electric vehicles. Several factors have hindered EV demand, including elevated vehicle costs, range anxiety, prolonged charging times, and a scarcity of public charging infrastructure.

Sam Fiorani, Vice President of AutoForecast Solutions, notes, “As emission regulations tighten, hybrids present a cleaner alternative without necessitating an immediate shift to fully electric vehicles.”

S&P Global Mobility projects a significant surge in hybrid adoption, with expectations that hybrids will comprise 24 percent of new U.S. car sales by 2028. Farqli o'laroq, pure EVs are projected to represent 37 percent of sales, while internal combustion engine (MUZ) transport vositalari, including mild hybrids, will encompass 40 foiz. Taqqoslash orqali, S&P predicts that hybrids will make up only 7 percent of U.S. sales this year, with pure EVs accounting for 9 percent and ICE vehicles comprising over 80 foiz.

Toyota’s Prius has historically been one of the most popular hybrid models, though hybrids have traditionally accounted for less than 10 percent of total U.S. sales. Toyota, along with Ford, is making significant strides in introducing more hybrid models to the market.

Ford’s CEO, Jim Farley, announced ambitious goals to quadruple hybrid sales within the next five years. Ilgari, the company had predominantly focused on promoting pure EVs. Farley acknowledges that the transition to EVs will be dynamic and potentially volatile until clear industry leaders emerge.

While many automakers are embracing hybrids, General Motors (GM) appears to be less inclined, with a strong commitment to an all-electric future. Stellantis, boshqa tarafdan, following in the footsteps of Toyota and Ford, is set to offer a range of powertrain options, with a notable increase in hybrid sales projected around 2025.

Hybrids have already made headway in specific models. Stellantis reports that hybrid versions constitute 36 percent of Jeep Wrangler sales and 19 percent of Chrysler Pacifica sales. This indicates a promising trajectory for hybrids in conjunction with the impending launch of all-electric models.

Bu yil, Bundan ko'proq 60 hybrid models were sold in the U.S., with Toyota’s luxury brand, Lexus, boasting 18 distinct hybrid models. Hyundai, Qo'ysangchi; qani endi, Ford, and Lincoln also have a solid hybrid presence, while GM plans to introduce the Chevrolet Corvette Hybrid later this year.

Despite the growing interest, many U.S. dealers are facing hybrid shortages. Andrew DiFeo, Director of a Hyundai dealership, envisions hybrids as a bridging solution. He suggests that EV adoption might not reach desired levels until charging infrastructure rivals the ubiquity of gas stations. DiFeo states, “Irrespective of the future landscape, hybrids offer a robust transition. While hybrid inventory is scarce, customer demand remains strong.”
