Overview:

Electric Vehicles are a key part of our tomorrow and how we get there. If we can get all the fossil fuel vehicles off our roads, out of our seas and out of our skies, we'll have a much better environment. This community is where we discuss the various different vehicles and news stories regarding electric transportation.

81.9 percent of new cars sold in Denmark were electric. That’s pretty good, but Finland and Sweden had electric car shares of 48.8 and 42 percent, respectively, which is cause for celebration here at our global headquarters.

Looks like Denmark is 6 years behind Norway.

Denmark has gone from a 13.2 percent electric car share in April, 2022 to 81.9 percent in April 2026. This is a very clear maturation of the market in just four years.
