S&P Global Mobility return-to-market data shows electric vehicle owners remain most likely to buy another EV, but their share declined in the second half of 2025 as a larger portion returned to gasoline cars.
The report notes that roughly 10% of EV buyers who left the segment went to hybrids, while a bigger and growing share shifted to gas-powered vehicles even with some EV purchases pulled forward.
S&P Global Mobility finds hybrid owners are slightly more likely to buy an EV next than EV owners are to buy a hybrid, and loyalty to hybrids is lower than EV loyalty. Fewer than 45% of hybrid owners chose a traditional gasoline vehicle as their next purchase.
Overall loyalty trended slightly down and luxury brands lost more customers than they regained, and the data suggests limited EV or hybrid options in some segments may be driving returns to gasoline vehicles.
