Carvana Co. ( CVNA ) is facing a dip in its share price on Wednesday, but the company remains a key player in the used electric vehicle market.
Carvana ( CVNA ) today released its EV Trends Report, shedding light on the growing adoption of used EVs.
The report shows that Carvana’s EV sales mix leads the used vehicle market as a whole, with 5.7% of its sales coming from EVs in 2024, compared to just 1.3% for the overall used car market.
The primary driver behind this surge in EV interest is the appeal of saving both time and money at the pump, Carvana ( CVNA ) said in the report.
Vehicle style and performance are also important factors, especially as more EV models become available.
Notably, 80% of EV owners prefer charging at home, with 86% of them driving less than 50 miles daily, making public charging infrastructure less of a necessity, Carvana ( CVNA ) noted in its report.
