For anything more than a few HP, SCRs still rule the DC drive world.

I guess the toy stuff, under 1HP, is all PWM based these days.
Small but not toys, say 1 to 5 HP, is probably a mix.  But I bet there
aren't many PWM DC drives above 5HP.

My perspective is skewed somewhat, since the company I work
for makes industrial DC drives, from about 20HP up.  We don't
mess with the tiny stuff.  We recently shipped a 3000HP DC
drive for use in a steel mill.
