That is the problem with Bloomberg reporting. Title says Europe EV sale drop further, but what happened in Germany does not represent all Europe. They cherry pick the outliners to support their agenda. We know since the beginning of the year, EV sale dropped in Germany because of the incentives removal. They pick the worst counties in Europe in EV sale. From Jan to June, EU & EFTA & UK actually had 1% increase over last year. US and China also increase this year. Just for common sense, if you want to look into whole Europe EV trend, you should at least start with the largest EV markets and the overall number.
