Middle East conflict drives up fuel prices, surging demand for both new and used electric vehicles in Europe
- Due to rising fuel prices caused by the Middle East conflict, demand for new and used electric vehicles in the European market continues to increase. Data from 17 markets representing more than 90% of sales in the EU and European Free Trade Area countries show that new electric vehicle registrations in May rose by 34% year-on-year.
