Worldwide sales of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) rose last year to 10.4 million, about 14% more than a year earlier, according to a study by management consultants PwC.
In the 21 markets examined by PwC, China dominated with nearly two-thirds of the volume, specifically 6.7 million BEVs.
It also leads in growth with over 20%, significantly above average based on last year's revised figures, foreign media write, reports Telegraph.
The US followed with 1.2 million sales and a 7.4% increase, followed by the UK with 382,000 BEV sales, a 21% increase from last year.
Germany fell to fourth place after a 27% "collapse" in its electric car market to 381,000 cars following the removal of purchase premiums last year.
Sales also fell in other European markets such as France, Austria, Italy, Switzerland and Sweden, but the declines were milder and from a lower base than in Germany. /Telegraph/
