Charger US imports surged dramatically in 2025, with value nearly 10x the 2024 level.
This reflects two converging trends:
(1) massive EV charging infrastructure buildout (18,000+ new DC fast-charging ports added in 2025, ~30% YoY growth — the largest expansion in US history),
(2) continued dominance of consumer electronics charger imports from China and Southeast Asia.
