According to a large-scale study conducted by Shell among 15,000 drivers in Europe, the US, China, and the UK, interest in electric vehicles (EVs) in Europe has decreased significantly. Only 41% of European drivers say they plan to purchase an EV, compared to 48% in 2024.
The main reasons for this decline are the high prices of EVs, which are still up to 30% more expensive than internal combustion engine vehicles, as well as dissatisfaction with the available public charging infrastructure. Only 17% of European drivers believe it is adequate, while in the US this share reaches 71%.
