In 2019, electric vehicles were still a niche purchase in most countries, accounting for single-digit shares of new car sales.

By 2025, EVs had moved from niche to dominant in several markets. In Norway, EVs were estimated to make up 97% of new car sales, meaning nearly every new car sold was electric. Several other countries crossed the 50% threshold, and in China, EVs made up more than half of all new car sales in the world’s largest auto market.

This infographic highlights how EV sales share has evolved between 2019 and 2025. The data for this visualization come from the International Energy Agency (IEA) and Ember. EVs include both battery electric vehicles (BEVs) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs). Sales figures for 2025 are estimates.

Taken together, the data shows how quickly EV adoption has moved from early adoption to mainstream across much of the global auto market.
