These projections are just for the US, worldwide numbers will be significantly larger and I suspect China and India will especially be looking to electric vehicles to reduce air pollution in their cities.

I suspect these estimates may be on the conservative side, once consumers become used to EVs and their reduced cost of operating, no fuel and 90% less maintenance costs and the possibility of charging from home solar panels, (which are rapidly dropping in cost) they will flock to purchase them.

On the VERY conservative side in my opinion. ICEs will never be able to compete with EVs by 2020. (Even without an EESU).
