25% of all the new cars registered in Britain in February were pure battery electric — level pegging with the number of non-hybrid petrol cars. 4% were diesel powered. But apparently “nobody wants EVs” so presumably nobody wants petrol cars either. 😂 Nearly half of all new cars are some flavour of hybrid, which is progress of sorts if those hybrids are getting the fuel economy claimed for the. Over time that’s got to have an effect on fuel demand. https://newautomotive.org/ecc
There are now over 2 million EVs on Britain’s roads (2,018,300). With around 30 million cars and vans in total that’s roughly 1 in 15. The growth is steady.
@christineburns Is that pure electric?
@JohanEmpa Yes. 2 million pure electric cars.
