World · Electric cars sold

New electric passenger cars sold in the year: battery-electric and plug-in hybrid (International Energy Agency, Global EV Outlook, republished by Our World in Data, CC BY 4.0). Non-plug-in hybrids are not counted.· Every series comes from ONE dataset: the countries Citoyen covers and the world total are read together, from the same source and the same release. « Rest of the world » is the world total minus the 19 countries covered (the European Union is left out, it contains France, Germany and Italy and would be counted twice). The six largest countries on the indicator are drawn on their own, the other covered countries are grouped. A year is drawn only when every country and the world are published: a missing country would otherwise land in « rest of the world » as a fake jump.· New electric passenger cars sold in the year, battery-electric and plug-in hybrid (International Energy Agency, Global EV Outlook, read through Our World in Data, CC BY 4.0). Argentina and Saudi Arabia are not published by the IEA: they stay inside the rest of the world. The series starts when every other covered country is published.· Licence : Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 · source: IEA, Global EV Outlook· Published Jun 15, 2026
