How many electric cars are in Georgia?

More and more states seem to be ramping up their electric car incentives, and it’s got me considering buying an EV myself. I live in Georgia, and I just want some idea of the progress of EVs. How many electric cars are in Georgia?

Good question. According to a recent Washington Post report, there are about 34,000 registered electric cars in
Georgia
.
Not too long ago, Georgia was a leading state for newly registered
electric vehicles
. The state now ranks 10th in the United States for the number of EVs on the road. Of the 24,400 electric cars currently in Georgia, one-third of them are in Fulton County.
Georgia’s decline in electric car sales may be due to the special fee for electric cars that the state has imposed. This fee ranges from $50 to $225 and might deter motorists ready to trade in their fossil fuel-powered vehicles. Many Georgians argue that these fees do not equate to what they would pay in fuel taxes and seem unfair.
That said, Georgia does offer electric vehicle incentives in the form of a $250 rebate when you purchase a hybrid or EV. While this might seem insignificant compared to the total cost, it is one step in the right direction and may pave the way for further EV innovation in the Peach State.
