Top 10 Most Sold Electric Cars In The World (2000-2021) - Highest Selling Electric Cars - EV/BEV

An electric car or battery electric car is an automobile that is propelled by one or more electric motors, using energy stored in batteries. Compared to internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles, electric cars are quieter, have no exhaust emissions, and lower emissions overall. In the United States and the European Union, as of 2020, the total cost of ownership of recent electric vehicles is cheaper than that of equivalent ICE cars, due to lower fueling and maintenance costs. Charging an electric car can be done at a variety of charging stations; these charging stations can be installed in both houses and public areas.
Out of all cars sold in 2020, 4.6% were plug-in electric, and by the end of that year there were more than 10 million plug-in electric cars on the world's roads, according the International Energy Agency. Despite rapid growth, only about 1% of cars on the world's roads were fully electric and plug-in hybrid cars by the end of 2020. Many countries have established government incentives for plug-in electric vehicles, tax credits, subsidies, and other non-monetary incentives. And several countries have legislated to phase-out sales of fossil fuel cars, to reduce air pollution and limit climate change.
The Tesla Model 3 became the world's all-time best-selling electric car in early 2020, and in June 2021, became the first electric car to pass 1 million global sales. Earlier models with widespread adoption include the Japanese Mitsubishi i-MiEV and the Nissan Leaf.
In 1897, electric cars found their first commercial use as taxis in Britain and the US. In London, Walter Bersey's electric cabs were the first self-propelled vehicles for hire at a time when cabs were horse-drawn. In New York City, a fleet of twelve hansom cabs and one brougham, based on the design of the Electrobat II, were part of a project funded in part by the Electric Storage Battery Company of Philadelphia. During the 20th century, the main manufacturers of electric vehicles in the US included Anthony Electric, Baker, Columbia, Anderson, Edison, Riker, Milburn, Bailey Electric, and Detroit Electric. Their electric vehicles were quieter than gasoline-powered, and did not require gear changes.
Electric cars were popular until advances in internal combustion engine (ICE) cars and mass production of cheaper petrol (gasoline) and diesel vehicles led to a decline. ICE cars' much quicker refueling times and cheaper production costs made them more popular. However, a decisive moment was the introduction in 1912 of the electric starter motor that replaced other, often laborious, methods of starting the ICE, such as hand-cranking.
The most expensive part of an electric car is its battery. The price decreased from €600 per kWh in 2010, to €170 in 2017, to €100 in 2019. When designing an electric vehicle, manufacturers may find that for low production, converting existing platforms may be cheaper, as development cost is lower; however, for higher production, a dedicated platform may be preferred to optimize design, and cost.
After about a decade of electric vehicle expansion, there is already multiple individual all-electric models with six-digit cumulative sales results.
The top-selling BEV without any doubt is the Tesla Model 3.
The second-best and long-time leader is the Nissan LEAF according to the list.
The big difference between the LEAF and Model 3 is that the first has been already nearly 10 years on the market, while the second for over three years.
This list only considers fully electric cars.

Electric cars have been brought into prominence in the recent years due to increasing Fuel Prices and Global warming.
Let us know what you noticed in this video down in the comments.

So nice,...the next level, for a Green world, natural, and more neutral, more future!,..

[@xstatc420]

Yeah bro.
Over the years the demand has been increasing.
Hopefully in the next few years, we get much cheaper alternatives and most of the gas guzzling vehicles be replaced.
