EV Market Dynamics: Analyzing Growth Trends in Europe and China

As a result, the latest expected market share for Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) has been adjusted to 18.5%, down from the 19.8% projected in April. This adjustment reflects a recalibration of expectations amid various market challenges. Nonetheless, overall market growth is still anticipated for 2024.
