Electric Vehicle Sales Approach Historic Parity with Gas Cars in the UK

Battery-electric vehicles captured 32% of the UK new car market in October, trailing gasoline models by just over five percentage points, according to data from the Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders. The narrowing gap marks the closest EV sales have ever come to internal combustion vehicles in the country. Analysts project that BEV deliveries could surpass purely petrol sales within months if current adoption trends continue.
