Countries globally are rapidly transitioning to a cleaner energy future—accelerating their push for electric vehicles alongside ambitious targets to phase out gasoline and diesel in transportation. Global electric car sales surged by around 25% in the first quarter of 2024 from the same period in 2023 and are projected to reach approximately 17 million units by the end of the year, accounting for more than one in five cars sold globally.
