EVs Now Displace 5x More Gas Than They Did in 2021

Nearly two decades after the Tesla Roadster brought battery electric vehicles (BEVs) into the mainstream, BEVs are increasingly eating into the gasoline and diesel market. Electric vehicles now account for around 4.20% of the global car fleet, which is an admittedly small number that doesn’t truly show the impact EVs are having on fossil fuel sales. Data from T&E shows that electric vehicles now displace 5 times more gas than they did in 2021, displacing a whopping 1.2 million barrels of oil daily compared to 215,000 barrels per day in 2021. In addition to displacing 1.20% of worldwide oil use,…

VW’s Struggles Highlight Industrial Decline in Germany

Nothing represents the decline of Germany’s historically dominant vehicle sector as clearly as the troubles facing Volkswagen, one of the pillars that have held up automaking in Germany for decades. Germany has been at the forefront of vehicle innovation in Europe for a long time and was home to the continent’s largest auto industry, but it is now facing headwinds that signal a major decline in German automaking. One of the main reasons German carmakers are struggling is the ongoing transition to electric cars coupled with the dominance of Chinese companies. While most Western automakers still sell their EVs at…

Blue Wave Could Boost Clean Energy, Electric Vehicles

The blue wave sweeping across America could finally give the country’s struggling clean energy and electric vehicle segments the reprieve they need to recover from the Trump administration’s outright war on renewables. Democrat candidates scored the overwhelming majority of votes during the midterm elections as Americans turned on Republicans for, among other things, starting a war in the Middle East that triggered an international energy crisis. Now that the Democratic party has secured the House and Senate, renewable energy and green technology have a real chance. The Biden administration passed key sustainability-related policies and invested tens of billions of dollars…

Chinese Firms Make Further Inroads into Norway’s EV Market

Locked out of the North American vehicle market, Chinese electric vehicle firms are increasingly focusing their efforts on Norway, currently one of the largest and fastest-expanding EV markets in Europe. EVs represented 98.8% of new vehicle registrations across the Nordic nation in October, reaching 15,536 new units by the end of the month. Chinese brands made up 20% of the Norwegian electric vehicle market in October, with Tesla and Toyota together accounting for nearly 20% of the overall market. The Norwegian Road Information Authority (OFV) notes that new vehicle registrations last month surpassed every October for the past three decades…

Xiaomi Delivers More Than 50,000 Cars in October

Xiaomi’s vehicle wing recently posted its best monthly delivery figure of 2026, with shipments crossing the 50,000-vehicle mark for only the second time in its history. The brand launched in April 2024 as the vehicle arm of smartphone giant Xiaomi Corporation, entering one of the world’s most competitive car markets and swiftly becoming one of the largest contenders. Before October, the only time deliveries had cleared 50,000 was December 2025, when 50,212 units were shipped. Against the 40,015 deliveries in September, October represents a jump of at least 25%, and against October 2025’s 48,654 units, a gain of roughly 3%.…

UK Considers Incentivizing Carmakers to Equip EVs to Supply Energy to Grids

The United Kingdom is considering wide-scale vehicle-to-grid (V2G) technology adoption as a means of supplementing its energy supplies. Electric cars equipped with this technology essentially become mobile power plants capable of feeding energy into the grid. While some modern EVs come equipped with V2G capabilities, the vast majority of the electric cars on the road don’t have this technology. EVs with V2G capabilities automatically charge when demand for electricity is low and prices are cheap, typically overnight while people sleep, and can sell some of this energy to the grid when energy demand peaks between 5-9pm. V2G limits the strain…

Company Vehicle Regulations Could Create 344,000 Jobs in Europe

A recently-proposed company-vehicle policy has the potential to create hundreds of thousands of new job opportunities across Europe at a time when the continent’s auto sector is facing a historic decline. According to the Fraunhofer ISI Study, company vehicles represent the fastest way for Europe to turn its ongoing transition to battery electric vehicles (BEVs) into an active job creator. For years anti-EV proponents argued that transitioning to electric cars would cause significant job losses in the auto industry. And with European auto giants struggling to compete with Chinese EVs in both price and quantity, the transition threatened to permanently…

Sales of Used EVs Soar in the US

Used electric vehicle sales set records in September as new EV purchases fell sharply, a split that reframes the dominant narrative about American consumer appetite for electric cars. The divergence points to price as the main variable rather than any fundamental resistance to the technology. New EV sales dropped 40.7% against the same month last year, reaching an estimated 86,632 units. Washington removed the $7,500 purchase incentive when it lapsed in late September 2025, and the gap it left behind has not closed. A new electric vehicle now costs around $62,000 on average while hybrids average around $47,600 by comparison.…

Toyota Makes Record Sales in Europe Thanks to Vehicle Electrification

Toyota set a nine-month European sales record in 2026 on the strength of an internal product shift rather than market conquest, with electrified vehicles now making up 87% of what the company sells across the region. Combined volume across both brands edged up 0.6% to 936,042 units, but that number masks a dramatic reshaping of the lineup. Non-electrified sales account for most of what changed underneath the flat headline. Vehicles carrying no electric motor fell from roughly 210,000 to 122,419 over the period, a retreat of around 40% that outpaced EU-wide combustion declines by more than two to one, with…

Digital Natives are Buying EVs in Large Numbers

Younger consumers are buying electric vehicles in growing numbers, and the criteria driving those decisions have less to do with brand heritage and more with digital connectivity and software capability. Research across China, North America and Europe points to a generational realignment in what a desirable car actually is, with digital natives increasingly treating vehicles as hardware platforms that happen to move. When this demographic evaluates an electric vehicle, the framework they apply mirrors the one they use for consumer electronics like phones. Charging infrastructure, software responsiveness and in-car technology rank high alongside cost considerations as the primary factors. Mechanical…
