A color-coded map of Europe titled "Share of electric vehicles sold in each EU country in 2024," showing the share of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) as a percentage of total new passenger car registrations. The EU average is 13.5%. Countries with the highest shares (>20%, darkest shade) include Sweden (35%), Netherlands (34.5%), Finland (29.5%), Luxembourg (27.4%), Belgium (28%), and Denmark (51%).  Other countries like France (16.5%), Portugal (19.9%), and Austria (17.5%) are also in the <20% range. Several Eastern and Southern European countries (including Italy, Spain, Poland, and Czechia) have shares below 10% (the lightest shades).

@EUCommission

While it's less bad than if all these new car sales were petrol or diesel, a "clean future" is one where trains cover most travel and bicycles, trams and electric buses cover all short distances.

Europe, with its compact geography and pre-existing railway lines, is ideally suited to swiftly transition to a largely car-free society. That is the future.
