From InsideEVs:
About 235,000 plug-ins were sold, which translated to 15% market share.
Plug-in electric car sales surge in China to new record levels as multiple models are selling better than ever.
In June, some 235,000 passenger plug-in cars were registered (new all-time record), which is probably close to 160% more than a year ago. Moreover, the market share increased to 15% and 12% are BEVs. Plug-in hybrids are not that popular in China.
So far this year, about 1.1 million passenger plug-in cars were sold, which is 11% of the total market. BEV share stands at 9%.
It's obvious that this year sales will exceed 2 million - possibly even 2.5 million.
OK, all those forecasters who think it'll take until 2040 for EV sales to make up 100% of car sales: China makes and sells roughly 1/3rd of the world's cars, will likely reach 20% EVs by the end of this year, and is only just beginning to turn its attention to EV exports. Seriously? At the growth rates of the last 5 years, China & Europe will achieve 100% by 2025. Peak oil has come.
