Background

The late 2010s marked a pivotal era for electric vehicles in the United States. While EVs had existed for years, 2017-2019 saw the transition from niche product to mainstream contender. Tesla began delivering its first mass-market sedan in mid-2017, battery capacities grew significantly across the industry, and legacy automakers like BMW, Audi, and Chrysler introduced new electric and plug-in hybrid models. By 2019, annual U.S. EV sales had reached over 320,000 units.

Alongside EV trends, this site also examines residential housing data from the Kaggle Housing Prices dataset, exploring how features like area, bedrooms, bathrooms, and amenities relate to property value across a selection of 14 properties.

High-Level Takeaways

            Tesla dominated the EV market. The Model 3 alone captured roughly 50% of all U.S. EV sales by 2018, with an 8,600% production increase from 2017 to 2018.
        

            Battery range improved dramatically. The Nissan Leaf went from 107 miles (2017) to 226 miles (2019), while remaining under $38,000 — proving affordable long-range EVs were possible.
        

            Bigger homes don't always cost more. In the housing dataset, the largest property (8,960 sqft) is not the most expensive — furnishing status and location can outweigh raw square footage.
        

            Mid-range properties offer the best value. Budget-conscious buyers can find 1,190 sqft per million in the mid-range vs. only 558 sqft per million at the top end.
