Battery-powered electric vehicles almost doubled their market share in the European continent during the first quarter as rollout models across the continent increased.
According to a Reuters report, hybrid electric vehicles accounted for more than a quarter of the market, up from around a fifth in the same period last year.
A previous report stated data from the European Automobile Manufacturers’ Association that showed one out of 11 cars sold last year on the continent was an electric vehicle.
The study also claimed the market share of electric vehicles also doubled to 6.2 per cent from 3.1 per cent as electric vehicles are gaining popularity around the globe.
