Electric Vehicles are changing the automobile industry, and it's very evident this upsurge in the EV market is strongly supported by the consumer demand. In this blog, we will explore in brief about the regions with lot of market traction towards EVs and list down the companies that are leading this sector.
1. North America and US
New data from the analysis of electric vehicle sales has reveal that Tesla?s best-selling Model 3 sales are still the primary driver of development on the US automotive market.
In the first half of 2019, just under 150,000 plug-in electric vehicles were delivered in the US, 57% of which, was Tesla vehicles when they included plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) and 78% when considering only electric battery vehicles (BEVs).]
Further, a recent market insight found that as many as 40 million Americans would at least consider a battery-electric vehicle, or BEV, for their next car. And as a flood of new models comes on the market, the public may be more interested in battery-based vehicles.
2. China and Asia
China has become, by far, the leading manufacturer of the three main kinds of electric cars: Mild Hybrid Electric Vehicles (MHEV), Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV) and Battery Electric Vehicles (BEV).
More electric cars were sold in China in 2018 than they were combined in the rest of the world. Over the past decade, the Chinese government has spent nearly $60 billion to develop a sector that builds electric cars, while also decreasing the number of permits accessible to gasoline-powered vehicles to boost electric car demand. And in the next century, Beijing intends to invest just as much.
China has 99% of the world?s 250 million electric two-wheelers. That?s almost 100 times the world?s entire amount of electric passenger vehicles. This can be attributed to the goverment reforms and rules.

Fully electric vehicles (BEVs) jumped 70 per cent year-over-year in April to some 24,000 deliveries and accounted for 65 per cent of all month-long plug-in sales. The BEV share of the car industry as a whole was 1.8%. Adding plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) to the tally, the share jumps to 2.8 per cent, making the 2019 plug-in car (PEV) share up to 3.0 per cent (2.0 per cent for BEVs alone) above the 2018 outcome of 2.5 per cent.
