By 2040, more than half of new cars will be electric

There aren't enough women in the C-suite. This club wants to change thatVW is creating an electric future. This is what it looks like

By 2040, electric cars could make up 57% of all passenger car sales worldwide, the report found. That's up two percentage points from BNEF's 2040 projection last year. Electric vehicles will make up a similar percentage of light commercial vehicle sales in the United States, Europe and China within that time, BNEF predicts.

Not my car

Shut down the USA media. It's out of control.

WOW.!! I'll be, one hundred yrs old in 2040. I drive a V8 gas job now & will keep driving it, till I choke to death on the fumes. Seriously, they must design a battery with fast charging, high capacity, with long distant, light weight & long life, then they'll be a great car.

It will be very sad if the number is that low

Most electricity is produced using fossil fuels. Dumb and dumber.

I’ll ask again how do you charge up battery on looong trip how long does it take to re charge anyone please .

Ever measure the EMF coming off an electric vehicle? Ever give a shit about EMF? Thought not.

We love that

According to Ocasio we will all be dead by then..

Had they been affordable and been able to go long distance they would have already been over 60 %

Good I just hope my new car last that long

Fake News

Not good enough.

Better build one that will compete with a gas engined vehicle when it's well below freezing for months on end

Try 50% by 2024

The world is ending in 12 years....oops...

4th Industrial revolution😁

I don’t know-maybe. I took my car in for service and the “shuttle” driver took me home in a electric car. Beautiful car-on the small size. told me it saved him a fortune in gas/fuel. Asked how much-told me $30m but gov’t rebate of $20m. Good deal

Need trucks and a better way to charge before I get one. But I want an electric truck pretty bad. US has a large population that tows and camps!

Really? Have you met a Republican?

By 2040, electric cars could make up 57% of all passenger car sales worldwide, according to a new report .... if the gasoline cars and vehicles don't kill every living thing before then

Or maybe hydrogen cars

Wrong!

Not in cold climates. I do not live in a warm climate like most fake news organization. I like my car warm when I drive to work not 15 degrees Fahrenheit in winter. It's cold 8 months .My defrosters would drain the batteries within minutes.

If the gasoline cars don't choke everyone before then

according to AOC we only have 12 years to live...2040 dreamers.

Only works if electric car companies can find a replacement for the natural resources/elements stripped from mines that is used in battery production & comes up with method to recycle batteries that does not harm earth. AND better way to recharge battery without polluting.

They need to hurry up and sell more electric cars at affordable prices for regular people. Also start building more charging stations and improve batteries to last longer.

Electric cars create more CO2 than gasoline vehicles overall due to the mining of elements/materials for batteries. Increasing electric vehicle automobiles will only create more environmental pollution due to increased mining & lack of resources for proper disposal of batteries.

If anyone wants to place a wager on this, I’m in! Electric isn’t and wontbe the answer!

*America would like to know your location*

It's welcome news. The manufacturers must make their products affordable and capable of travelling long distances without pit stops. That's all we're asking for.

Lol okkkk

Electric cars is a real objective around this world.

Not if Trump and his supporters can help it. Trump is looking to make cars run on 'Clean Coal'. Idiots.

One day the nuclear batteries will solve the problem of gasoline consuming

It’s funny how u assume we’ll be alive by then lol

The owners of the world will not dictate what I will drive.. still useless tech

CNN FakeNews propaganda Lying enemyofthepeople

Get back to me when they can make one that will start consistently in minus 20 weather.

Calculate the CO2 imprint to do that.

Where are we heading to my country? benmurraybruce

Euuu

So what I’m hearing is a free market solution as opposed so forced government regulation?

Just a dream car makers need more time. Drivers need cheap cars & passengers want the cheapest ride.

By 2040, 57% of all people that read this article COULD be dead, according to probable logic

Tesla stock keeps falling. Get on a few stocks and sit on them for a couple years!

mmm that could be difficult ,give how the African economies import cars and fuel is a dominant source of energy.

When yer kids... are grand parents.

I would like to drive one NOW but will have to wait for them to become more affordable. Tried hiring one for a week's holidays by can't see them being offered through car hire companies.

Finally, some good news. Still a long way away, though.

‘Could’ 🤦‍♂️

Isn't coal required to make the batteries?

'Could'

Never too late to wean the world from fossil fuel. Mother Earth needs respite from from an abusive Homo sapiens..👍 👍 👍

Maybe by that time CNN won't be a disgraceful globalist propaganda machine anymore.

Will be driving one soon
