However, EVs and PHEVs are still low volume sellers compared to the overall market in the US (10,615 combined for all models).

Still, overall EV sales were up ~60% from January 2016 which is encouraging. That can probably be attributed to the new Volt and Bolt models along with a bump in Model X sales. We'll see if sales for the Bolt hold (relatively) strong through Q1 2017. Once GM decides to offer the Bolt in 50 states, numbers should spike again.
 
It will be interesting to see if the numbers stay up there in Feb as well, or it's just the 'gotta have it NOW' and/or 'must be FIRST' of a new release.
