The global market share of electric cars more than doubled in 2021, marking a clear acceleration of electric vehicle adoption around the world.
The way the pandemic is affecting the auto market is putting a lens on the decline in ICE car sales, and more people are starting to understand that shift is permanent. The combined decline in ICE sales – and the increase in electric cars sales – have resulted in a massive jump in market share for the latter over the last 12 months.
Growth has been particularly impressive over the last three years, even as the global pandemic shrank the market for conventional cars and as manufacturers started grappling with supply chain bottlenecks. In 2019, 2.2 million electric cars were sold, representing just 2.5% of global car sales. In 2020, the overall car market contracted but electric car sales bucked the trend, rising to 3 million and representing 4.1% of total car sales. In 2021, electric car sales more than doubled to 6.6 million, representing close to 9% of the global car market and more than tripling their market share from two years earlier. All the net growth in global car sales in 2021 came from electric cars.
