? Charted: Global EV milestone
 
A stacked column chart showing the quarterly global sales of electric cars from Q1 2021 to Q1 2025. There has been a steady upward trend from 1 million sales to a peak of almost 6 million in Q3 2024. More sales have been made in China than anywhere else, followed by Europe, the United States and the rest of the world.
Data: IEA. Chart: Jacque Schrag/Axios

EVs are slated to reach one-fourth of global car sales this year despite trade and policy question marks, Axios' Ben Geman writes from a new International Energy Agency report.

  • Why it matters: EV sticker prices are getting more competitive with gas-powered models as battery costs fall, but gaps persist in key markets outside China.

?️ Between the lines: IEA sharply cut its U.S. EV growth estimate as Trump 2.0 officials and congressional Republicans reverse Biden-era subsidies and rules.

  • The agency now sees EVs with 20% of the light-duty market — sedans, vans, SUVs and pickups — in 2030. That's less than half of its projection in last year's analysis.
