Florida’s EV Market Continues to Thrive
Contrary to the political landscape, Florida is emerging as a strong contender in the electric vehicle (EV) market, following closely behind California in EV sales. The growth in EV registrations in Florida, particularly in the central region, is a testament to the state’s increasing enthusiasm for EVs.
Recent data from the Orlando Sentinel reveals that Central Florida saw a significant surge in EV registrations, with over 17,000 new EVs registered in the nine counties between November 2023 and November 2024. This growth, driven by consumer interest rather than incentives, has positioned Florida at the forefront of the EV movement.

In 2024, EV registrations in Central Florida grew by 15.2%, surpassing the national average of 9.4%. Orange County experienced a remarkable 46% year-over-year increase in EV registrations, showcasing the region’s rapid adoption of EVs.
As EV adoption becomes increasingly state-specific, Florida stands out as a diverse and evolving market. With projections indicating a shift in demographics towards Gen X and Millennials, who are more inclined towards EV purchases, the state’s EV landscape is poised for further growth.
Despite limited state incentives, Florida has witnessed a concerted effort to expand charging infrastructure. Invisible Urban Charging (IUC) announced plans in 2022 to double the number of charging stations in the state, focusing on installing 80-amp Level 2 AC units in public spaces and housing developments.
