Europe's electric car sales surge in 2026
Electric vehicle sales in Europe experienced an unprecedented rise in 2026, reaching 1.64 million cars from January to August, a 45% increase over the previous year. The market share grew to 22%. The growth was driven by greater diversity in models and falling prices, especially as companies like Volkswagen introduced affordable electric cars. Europeans now control about 60% of the available models, while Chinese companies hold 21%. Fuel prices have risen markedly, especially diesel, due to escalating conflicts in the Middle East, with prices increasing by 38% since the war began.
