Hawaii EV Association
Accelerating Hawaii’s transition to a sustainable transportation future.
EV Adoption in Hawaii - We’re over 34,867 passenger EVs!
As of November 2024, there were 34,867 registered EVs in Hawaii (+21.5% over November 2023). This now represents 3.2% of the 1,079,221 registered passenger vehicles in the state.
Electric freight vehicles (717) represent 0.9% of our 77,848 freight fleet.
Adoption is accelerating across the state, with very positive YoY growth. This is very positive, but more must be done to accelerate adoption. Hawaii consumes nearly 40,000,000 gallons of gasoline and diesel each month, and gas and diesel vehicles represent about 96% of registered passenger vehicles.

Did you know Hawaii is installing a 44 DC Fast Charger network?

The program is led by Robin Shishido, Deputy Director for Highways at the Hawaii Department of Transportation. He joined Hawaii EV to share information about the program and address questions regarding the schedule, equipment, and the NEVI initiative. Here’s the recording.
