Carmakers have sold more than 500,000 battery electric cars in Europe during 2020, a milestone in a move away from fossil fuels.
Sales of all plug-in cars, including hybrids, have surpassed 1m during the year in the UK and the largest 17 European markets, according to data collated by Schmidt Automotive Research.
Full electric car sales are rocketing as tightening emissions rules and increasing consumer demand have prompted manufacturers to spend billions of euros on developing new models capable of driving longer ranges.
