Your trusted source for comprehensive information about new energy vehicle pricing worldwide.

What are the estimated battery costs?

The estimated battery costs incorporate DOE’s understanding of battery production volumes for the different vehicle classes and capture the various prices that OEMs across the market experience. The costs discussed in this report represent a point in time reflective of current market conditions.

What does the DOE's 2022 analysis mean for electric vehicles?

DOE is updating its 2022 analysis of incremental purchase costs of electrified vehicles to reflect significant reductions to electric vehicle battery costs as well as decreases in other technology costs over the past two years.

How does Doe reduce the cost of new vehicle technology?

DOE also expands medium and heavy-duty vehicle classes previously analyzed and updates results based on current costs of technology. Reducing the cost of new vehicle technology for consumers is a central focus of DOE R&D efforts and has led to substantial reductions in the cost of plug-in and fuel cell vehicles over time.

What is the incremental purchase cost of a clean vehicle?

The incremental purchase cost of a clean vehicle is the excess of the purchase cost of such a vehicle over the purchase cost of a comparable ICE vehicle. Variation across vehicle makes and models makes it difficult to determine the incremental cost of vehicle electrification technologies by comparing two vehicles currently for sale.
