Be interesting to see vfacts breakdown of fuel type/power type.

While EV is definitely on the rise, I think they would still be only around 10% of sales.

Nearly all manufacturers are moving their focus to EV though so the uptake is likely to be exponential rather than linear.

While it's basically already the case, govts are going to be caught sleeping I feel. Lack of investment in EV infrastructure and grid capacity is going to hit sooner rather than later.

I think many are realising that they don't need a lot of range from an EV if they treat it like an appliance. Plug it in every night etc... For metro commuters there's not really a negative. I even asked the Mrs if she'd consider trading her escape in on an EV.
