1.Top Cities by Electric Vehicle Type Here I focused on where different
EV types are most registered. For example, BEVs are more common in
cities like Manchester and Bridgeport, while PHEVs are higher in Norwalk
and Fairfield. This kind of distribution gives insight into local
preferences or infrastructure support.
2.Top 5 Vehicle Body Types by Fuel Type This chart shows the most common vehicle body styles for each fuel type. It’s interesting to see how certain body types like SUVs and sedans (4H, SU, 4D) dominate across fuel types like E00 and G04. This helps understand what kind of EV designs are being prioritized by fuel system.
3.Vehicle Registrations Expiring by Year This bar chart shows how many vehicles are expiring each year. We can clearly see that most registrations expire in 2026. That tells us there might’ve been a major registration wave around 2021–2023, maybe due to incentives or increased EV adoption.
4.EV Types by Primary Customer City Here I explored which cities are using BEVs vs. PHEVs. Some cities like Manchester and Bridgeport have more BEVs, while Fairfield and Norwalk lean more towards PHEVs. It’s a good way to understand regional adoption patterns between full-electric and hybrid EVs.
5.Registration Usage by Vehicle Category This one compares how vehicles are used based on their category. It’s obvious that almost all Light-Duty vehicles are for regular usage, with very few under combination (business/commercial) type. This supports the idea that EVs are still largely personal-use vehicles.
6.Primary Color by Vehicle Make This bar chart shows what colors are popular for different car brands. BMW clearly favors gray and black, while Kia has more white and blue. Lucid seems to focus on more neutral tones. It’s fun but also useful for marketing and inventory decisions.
7.Fuel Type Distribution by Vehicle Type lastly, this one shows what fuel codes are used most for each vehicle type. Passenger cars dominate E00 and H03 types, while SUVs show more of G04 and G06. It’s important for understanding how fueling infrastructure might need to evolve.
