The fitted model (exclusively dependent on past data) has BEV passing ICE in mid-2030 and reaching 50% a year later.https://x.com/leRaffl/status/21169832950700690710.00202026-11-02T14:46:06.178037+00:002x.comcarselectric-cars3690https://pbs.twimg.com/media/HWEJFTFWEAAEndI?format=jpg&name=smallImage2026-11-02T14:46:06.731392+00:003329@DrSimEvansSimon EvansA record 2/3 of new cars in China are now electric, while combustion-car sales have fallen by 2/3 since they peaked in 2017 – In 2020, ~95% of sales were combustion-engine cars – By Sep 2026, they crashed to 33% – On the flip side, NEVs hit a record 67%Source: Simon Evans (X)https://x.com/DrSimEvans/status/21137154066071389670.00202026-10-24T06:45:19.194243+00:002x.comchinacarselectric-cars3167https://pbs.twimg.com/media/HVVsdMYWsAA8F4H?format=jpg&name=smallImage2026-10-24T06:45:20.630955+00:003305https://www.linkedin.com/in/janrosenow/Jan RosenowFact: when you fill up a petrol car most of the energy never moves it. Of the energy in the crude oil, only 13–21% reaches the wheels. About 17% is used up extracting, refining and transporting the fuel before it reaches the tank. The engine then turns most of the rest into heat.An electric car on today's UK grid gets 43–45% of the primary energy to the wheels. That's with 2025's mix of gas, nuclear and biomass power stations, with all their conversion losses included. It is still two to three times better than petrol. Run the same car on wind and solar and the figure rises to 77–80%. That includes losses in the grid and in storage. Many scenarios assume that every unit of fossil energy needs to be replaced one for one with clean energy. It doesn't. Most fossil energy is lost as heat, so electrification cuts the energy we need, not just the emissions. The gap also keeps widening. Every wind turbine and solar panel added to the grid moves the electric car further up the chart. A petrol car stays where it is.https://www.linkedin.com/feed/0.00702026-10-23T15:50:19.917134+00:001linkedin.comelectric-carsenergyclimate3144https://media.licdn.com/dms/image/v2/D4E22AQEwJGS923PMiQ/feedshare-shrink_800/B4EaFoHi3pKEAg-/0/1792748171091?e=1794441600&v=beta&t=6tHw_GSo6Dkjz4x0yxwhw6xuwKC2vNKjIPmC9iTBb-8View image2026-10-23T15:50:21.452635+00:00
