New Delhi: Nearly 6.5 million Electric Vehicles (EVS) – Including a fully hybrid passenger car and plug-ins – sold throughout the world in 2021, up 109 percent from 2020, with Tesla leading Global EV Marketa with 14 percent, reports Just showed on Monday.
The total global car market grew only 4 percent in 2021 because it continued to struggle with the limit of Covid-19 and lack of chips, while EV sales represented 9 percent of all passenger car sales last year, according to the Canalys market research company.
Nearly 85 percent of EVs are sold globally sent to customers in mainland China and Europe.
In comparison, while demand grew, only 4 percent of new cars sold in the US in 2021 were EVS – around 535,000 units.

Many new models are launched every month in each market segment Important, from tiny, cheap city cars for the beginning and ruling and premium SUV, “said Jason Low, Principal Analyst in Canalys.
Tesla Model 3 is the best-selling electric car in Europe in 2021, but Volkswagen Group is a leading EVS manufacturer, with several models of Audi, Skoda and VW sell well.
“The demand for EVs continues to be strong in Europe.
In fact, in many European countries EVS represents more than a quarter of a new car sold.
