Electric vehicles are continuing to grow in popularity, with over 10 million EVs in use across the globe. Although this number is impressive and does suggest continued growth, it only accounts for 0.7% of vehicles on roads around the world. However, this percentage is expected to increase to 7% by 2030. While those numbers might sound humble, last year global sales of EVs grew by 160% compared to sales from the previous year.
In the UK specifically, 10.7% of vehicles are plug-in cars. There are 345,000 pure electric cars on our roads and 675,000 hybrid cars in use. With these encouraging statistics, and as the market continues to expand, it is most definitely the right time to make the switch to electric.
