market share growth of electric vehicles in 15 European countries where electric vehicles have become most popular

. From 15.9% market share for plugin vehicles in Ireland to 86.1% market share for plugin vehicles in Norway, those countries are racing into the mass market stage of new tech adoption . In terms of full electric vehicles , the range in market share ranged from 5.7% in Belgium to 64.5% in Norway. Those are the 15 leaders of the EV transition in Europe — and just add China for the list of the top 16 countries globally.

One of the most exciting things about growth of EV market share in Europe is how widespread it is. Rather than seeing rapid growth in just 3 or 4 countries, the growth canvasses the continent. Of course, this is largely due to EU-wide requirements for automakers to lower the CO2 emissions of the vehicles the sell or pay huge fines. The EV sales growth isn’t uniform across Europe, though. If you go east or south, the market share of EVs in those countries drops off significantly.

Note that the time period for these analyses goes from 2012 through 2021, and this report examines both the plugin vehicle market as a whole and the fully battery-electric vehicle market. If you only care about BEVs, you are free to ignore the purple bar charts. We’ll start with those plugin vehicle charts and save the best for last.

zshahan3 would be interesting to see how EV market share corresponds to the number of Tesla Shops and Services Centres per capita The propably biggest reason for the low share of EV in Turkey and Cyprus is the lack of a Tesla presence in those markets

Love the hockey sticks, but we gotta get those numbers up to 25% this summer and 50% next year!
