Many countries around the world have pushed for the transition from oil-fueled vehicles to electric vehicles to reduce air pollution. Here are the three countries with the most electric vehicle populations in the world:
- Norway
Norway is ranked first as the country with the highest percentage of electric cars in the world, reaching 81 percent. This is because there are regulations in Norway that exempt the payment of road tax or sales tax for electric car owners.
- Iceland
Furthermore, the second position is occupied by Iceland which has 36.8% electric vehicles per 1,000 population. Electric vehicles in Iceland have been popular or in demand since 2017.
- Sweden
The population of electric vehicles in Sweden reaches 20.6% per 1,000 inhabitants. It is known, the number of electric vehicles in the country reached 56,000. In fact, the number of electric vehicles was only 157 units in 2009.
