Over the past decade, electric vehicles (EVs) have become increasingly popular across many of the world’s major economies, with both the eco-conscious and average consumer adding to the rise in sales. This phenomenon has not just appeared from thin air, however, as international climate agreements, national net zero plans, EV incentives and ICE (internal combustion engine) vehicle disincentives have all given rise to investment and factored into any significant change in uptake.
Cornwall Insight have partnered with law firm Shoosmiths to create the Electric Vehicle Country Attractiveness (EVCA) Index. In this week’s blog, we published our EVCA Index which charts the relative attractiveness of major European nations for investment in EVs – with a particular focus on passenger cars – and EV charging infrastructure.
