How many electric cars are in the world?

As of November 2022, there are an estimated 16 million electric cars on the road globally, up from 10.5 million in December 2020.

China has the largest fleet with over 6.5 million electric vehicles, followed by Europe with 3.2 million and the United States with nearly 2 million.

The global electric car market is growing rapidly, with sales increasing by over 100% in the past two years. This growth is being driven by several factors, including:

* Increasing awareness of the environmental benefits of electric vehicles. Electric vehicles produce zero tailpipe emissions, which helps reduce air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions.

* Government incentives for the purchase of electric vehicles. Many governments around the world offer incentives to encourage people to buy electric vehicles, including tax breaks, rebates, and access to preferential parking and charging.

* Decreasing cost of electric vehicles. The cost of electric vehicles has declined significantly in recent years, making them more affordable for a wider range of consumers.

The growth of the electric car market is expected to continue in the coming years. By 2030, it is estimated that there will be 300 million electric vehicles on the road globally.
