ICCT (International Council on Clean Transport) market report on the used ZEV market 2020-2050.
The transition to zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) is a core element of governments’ plans
to achieve a stable climate and cleaner air. With policies to support new uptake and the
declining cost of technologies, the global ZEV market is gaining momentum. However,
most ZEV purchases are concentrated among early-adopting new vehicle buyers.
Making ZEVs accessible to all drivers—including across the used vehicle market—is
critical to ensuring used car buyers experience ZEV benefits and that broader
environmental goals are met.
This report assesses market trends, technology changes, and policies to better
understand and support the used ZEV market. The research summarizes used ZEV
registration trends in major markets and the characteristics of new and used ZEV
drivers. The report includes an analysis of upfront price parity of used ZEVs versus
comparable used conventional vehicles, as well as an analysis of the growing stock of
used ZEVs in major markets over time. The assessment also provides a synthesis of
research on used ZEV prices, durability, incentives, and charging infrastructure needs
to identify possible future policies for a successful used ZEV market.
