EVs Just Outsold Gas Cars In Europe For The First Time​

Europe hit a historic milestone as EV sales surpassed gas cars for the first time, despite geopolitical headwinds.​

 


“… The nation’s population increased by about 1.8 million over the year, and stood at 341.8 million on July 1, the estimates say. That is a growth rate of about 0.5 percent, the lowest since 2021, when the Covid-19 pandemic caused deaths to soar and borders to close, shutting the door to international migration. That year saw the slowest growth since the nation’s founding.

Over that time, net immigration added 1.26 million people to the U.S. population. That number is considerably lower than 2024, when under President Biden, immigration reached a record high of 2.73 million…”
