The Guardian — April 23, 2024, 06:00 AM UTC
Summary: In 2024, the International Energy Agency predicts a global record of 17 million electric and plug-in hybrid car sales, a 20% increase from 2023. By 2030, most electric cars are expected to cost the same as petrol equivalents. Despite slowing growth in some markets, the EV revolution is gaining momentum, with more sales in Q1 2024 than in all of 2020. Countries like Norway lead in electric vehicle adoption.
