Horizontal bar chart of the share of new cars sold in 2025 that were electric, where it compares countries and regions and shows large differences — Norway about 97%, China about 53% (more than half), and the global average about 25%. Note: "electric" includes fully battery-electric and plug-in hybrids; data source: International Energy Agency, Global EV Outlook (2026). License: CC BY.

The International Energy Agency (IEA) just published its latest annual Global EV Outlook. It provides estimates for electric vehicle sales in 2025.

One in four (25%) cars sold in 2025 were electric, more than double the share from just four years earlier.

But there are large differences in adoption rates across the world. This chart shows new sales shares by country. In Norway, almost every new car is an electric one. In China, more than half are, while in the United States, it’s just 10%.

These figures include fully electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids. You can find this data broken down by vehicle type in this chart.

Where this page came from

This page was imported from Our World in Data. “One in four cars sold in 2025 was electric” by Hannah Ritchie, published by Our World in Data under CC BY 4.0. Changed here: set as a page, its interactive charts shown as pictures. Data from third parties keeps its own licence.

Nobody has written it yet — it is the source material at a new address, which is why search engines are asked to skip it and why no one earns from it. It is up for grabs: take it on, and it is yours to rewrite and to earn from.
