EV Registrations

New battery-electric cars registered each year, now a substantial and growing share of new-car sales. An EV (electric vehicle) runs on a battery rather than petrol or diesel. This counts pure battery-electric cars only, not plug-in hybrids. When registrations rise the shift away from petrol and diesel is speeding up; when they fall it is stalling.
