Market Growth Factors

Renewable energy production is increasing in Latin America. In OLADE West Zone member countries it accounted for 71% of total electricity production (with solar energy, wind energy and hydropower being the most relevant sources). From an increase in renewable energy, more environmental benefits of EVs are realized and the energy ecosystem becomes more resilient. Fossil fuel use declines. Consumers and businesses gain incentives through it. They make less polluting choices with switching to electric vehicles (EVs).

Public and private sectors are growing fast-charging corridors in major metropolitan areas and intercity expressways for supporting charging infrastructure. Near 2024's close Latin America had 18,594 public EV charging stations. These stations were concentrated in Brazil, Mexico, and Chile. Interstates have more fast chargers, but slow charging is still the most common method (60% of the market) within home and workplace use. Smart energy management minimizes the cost of charging which has driven market adoption.

In June 2024, the Brazilian government launched the Programa Nacional de Mobilidade Verde e Inovação (National Green Mobility and Innovation Program) to stimulate investment in EV plants. The plan incorporates tax exemptions, R&D credits, vehicle emissions regulations, interoperability standards for charging infrastructure, also integrated planning for public clean transport. To lower total cost of ownership for individuals, businesses and fleet customers, the program includes fiscal and import incentives and regulatory measures.

Market Segmentation

Component:

• Fuel Stack: Held the largest revenue share of 42% in 2025, driven by investments in localized production of high-efficiency electric motors, battery management systems, and energy storage solutions. Innovations in modular designs ensure easier component maintenance and sustainability.

Charging Type:

• Slow Charging: Accounted for approximately 60% market revenue share in 2025, supporting widespread residential and workplace EV use. It enables overnight or long idle period charging and helps optimize grid energy consumption, particularly in areas with moderate renewable penetration.

Propulsion Type:

• Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV): Dominated with 75% market share in 2025, due to zero emissions and lower operating costs. Advancements in lithium-ion and solid-state batteries improve range and performance, reinforced by supportive policies and incentives.

Vehicle Type:

• Passenger Vehicles: Formed the largest segment at about 70% revenue share in 2025. This is due to rising consumer awareness, government incentives, and urban mobility demands favoring electric sedans, compact cars, and SUVs.

Regional Insights

Brazil leads the Latin America electric vehicles market with accelerated EV adoption through government incentives and expanding charging networks. Brazil, Mexico, and Chile account for 92% of the 18,594 public EV charging stations as of end-2024. Growing urban EV sales and diversifying passenger and commercial models underscore Brazil's dominance in the regional EV landscape.

Recent Developments & News

• In May 2025, GAC Motor launched five new energy vehicles in Brazil, including pure EVs and hybrids, as part of its "Brazil Action" strategy with plans for local plants by 2026.
• In November 2025, Leapmotor entered South America with two SUV models in Brazil and Chile, showcased a larger model at the São Paulo auto show, and planned expansion into Argentina, Colombia, and Ecuador using Stellantis’ distribution network. This highlights the growing Chinese EV presence in Latin America.
