A British study shows disparities in the popularity of the electric car in Europe depending on the country.France, which is nevertheless part of the top 3 of European markets, is far in the ranking.
If you take sales volumes of electric cars, France, Germany and Norway are among the biggest European markets.But report raw data to the population of the country, and you will have a better idea of the real degree of interest of the French, German and Norwegian for the electric car.Or, in any case, more precise.This is how the electric car exceeded for the first time, recently, the 50 % market share in Norway when it remains clearly under 10 % in France.
A British study of a license plate specialist shows the search rate of the populations on the Internet for the electric car, for 1000 inhabitants.Unsurprisingly, Norway comes first, followed by Malta and Iceland.
What about France?16th, with 11 searches associated with the electric car for 1000 people in 2020.Three times less than in Norway.Overall, we can link the standard of living of the inhabitants of a country at the research rate, and that is why we find in the last positions of poorer countries.
However, there are exceptions: the Czechs seem very little interested in the electric car, with, however, a national manufacturer - Skoda - which begins to bet big on it.But it should also be remembered that electric vehicle research is also linked to government policies: where they are the most incentive (and restrictive for combustion engines), it is logical to see a higher rate.
