Corporate Electric Vehicle Alliance Survey Analysis

In the summer of 2021, members of the Corporate Electric Vehicle Alliance took part in an internal demand survey on the types, quantities, and specifications of electric vehicles the companies plan to purchase over the next five model years — 330,000 in all. This Ceres analysis of the results details a roadmap for vehicle manufacturers aiming to remain competitive in the changing auto and truck industry and also provides concrete proof of robust demand for zero emission vehicles, which policymakers can reference when pursuing transportation decarbonization policies. Alliance members, who include industry giants like Amazon, Best Buy, DHL, Hertz, Schindler Elevator, T-Mobile, and UNFI (United Natural Foods Inc.), collectively represent more than $1 trillion in annual revenue, and own, lease, or operate over 1.3 million on-road fleet vehicles in the U.S. alone.
