4.4 Million EV Units to Be Sold in the EU by 2026
The European Union (EU) is the leading EV market globally. And according to a StockApps.com analysis, the EU will have sold 4.4 million EV units by 2026. The site suggests that a growing consciousness about the environment will propel that growth.
StockApps.com’s Edith Reads has been discussing the data. She holds, “The European EV market is blooming and what’s driving it isn’t just the promise of cleaner air and lower emissions. It’s also a matter of consumer choice as there’s growing consumer concern about climate change throughout the region.”
How Does the European Climate Law Impact the EV Market?
Market data shows that the European EV market will reach 11.9M units growing by a CAGR of 29.6% between 2021 and 2028. The growth is driven by several factors, primarily the EU’s initiatives to curb emissions.
The EU has ratified the European Climate Law targeting climate neutrality before 2050. That law also seeks to bring GHG emissions 55% lower than in 1990 by 2030. This move has seen countries implementing policies that encourage the use of EVs, including the introduction of stricter CO2 emissions standards.
These standards require automakers to produce more efficient vehicles. Over several years, they will be phased in readiness for full implementation by 2030. As a result, automakers invest heavily in R&D programs to develop more fuel-efficient engines and hybrid vehicles that run on gasoline and electricity.
Are There Other Reasons for the Surge?
Besides the environmental laws, EU governments incentivise EV production and adoption. They’re encouraging automakers to ditch ICEs favouring electric ones through subsidies. Similarly, they are offering tax breaks for people who buy them.
Further, a rapid expansion of charging infrastructure and battery technology has made EVs more attractive to consumers and businesses. Besides, EV battery costs have been declining with time, cutting production costs and making them affordable to many.
