Electric cars are becoming a big part of the global shift away from fossil fuels. In 2025, about one in four new cars sold worldwide was electric, up from one in five the year before. That is a major change in transport geography because it shows how quickly technology can spread from one country to another.

China is leading the way, with electric cars making up more than half of new car sales. In Norway, nearly all new cars are now electric, and Denmark has also made very rapid progress. By contrast, the United States has seen much slower growth, with electric cars stuck at around 10% of new sales for several years. These differences show that transport change is not happening evenly across the world.
