Answer given by Ms Bulc on behalf of the Commission
24.11.2017
The Commission has presented its estimation of battery electric vehicles in the action plan on Alternative Fuels Infrastructure in the framework of the 2nd Mobility Package adopted on 8 November 2017[1].
By 2020 the number of electric vehicles is estimated at 4 million, by 2025 at 7% of market share.
This estimation is constructed on an assumption of possible future market share of battery electric vehicles, which in turn is based on announcements of vehicle manufacturers regarding the share of electric vehicles in their vehicle fleet.
