Electric
2020 will be the year that electric vehicles become visible on our roads – at least in Europe, North America and China. 175 EV models will go on sale, almost double what was available in 2019. Automakers are remaking classics (Ford’s Mustang, Fiat’s 500 and BMW’s Mini) and launching new models (Tesla's Model Y, Audi’s e-tron Sportback, Volkswagen’s ID4 Crozz). So choice is no longer a barrier; in fact, 400 new EV models are already in the design pipeline. But what about cost? Analysts predict price parity with petrol and diesel cars will start to happen by 2022. Go electric!
