Fleet electrification spans passenger cars, vans, buses and medium- and heavy-duty trucks, but the measures differ: sales, registrations, production, fleet stock and charging points are separate populations. The statistics below distinguish observed 2024–2025 results from IEA scenario projections and modeled estimates.
Key Fleet Electrification Statistics
The most broadly useful fleet electrification figures are:
- In 2024, almost 58 million electric cars made up about 4% of the world passenger-car fleet.
- In the IEA Stated Policies Scenario, the global EV stock excluding two- and three-wheelers reaches 250 million vehicles in 2030.
- In the same 2030 scenario, electric light-duty vehicles reach around 40% of global light-duty-vehicle sales.
- In 2024, global electric-truck sales grew nearly 80% and reached close to 2% of total truck sales.
- In 2024, China sold about 75,000 electric trucks, over 80% of global electric-truck sales.
- In 2024, electric light-commercial-vehicle sales exceeded 600,000 worldwide, after growing more than 40% year over year.
- In 2024, electric LCVs represented 7% of global LCV sales, up from 5% in 2023.
- In 2024, more than 1.3 million public charging points were added worldwide.
- At the end of 2024, global public charging stock exceeded 5 million points, more than double the 2022 level.
- In 2024, China held about 65% of global public charging points and 60% of the electric light-duty-vehicle stock.
- In 2024, the United States had just under 200,000 public charging points, after 20% growth.
- In 2025, North American electric-truck sales reached 20,000, up 25% year over year.
- In 2025, global electric-truck production reached around 440,000 vehicles, more than twice 2024 production.
- In 2025, more than 90% of electric-truck production was concentrated in China.
- In 2025, China’s electric trucks took over 25% of new truck sales, compared with 15% for natural-gas trucks.
- In the IEA 2035 Current Policies Scenario, heavy-duty-vehicle charging points rise above 11 million worldwide.

Global EV Scale and the 2030 Fleet Trajectory
The end-2024 baseline is broad but not truck-specific. The IEA counted almost 58 million electric cars, equal to about 4% of the world passenger-car fleet, while its 2030 scenarios separately model the stock of vehicles excluding two- and three-wheelers.
Under the IEA Stated Policies Scenario (STEPS), the non-two- and three-wheeler EV stock reaches 250 million in 2030, four times the end-2024 level, with modeled growth of about 25% per year from 2024 to 2030. More than 90% of that 2030 stock is projected to be electric cars.
The broader all-vehicle denominator changes the picture:
| Measure | Period and geography | Figure |
|---|---|---|
| EV stock excluding two- and three-wheelers | 2030, world, STEPS | 250 million |
| EV share of all vehicles on the road | 2030, world, including two- and three-wheelers, STEPS | About 15% |
| China share of global EV stock | 2024 to 2030, STEPS | Over 70% to around 55% |
| Electric bus share of bus stock | 2030, world, STEPS | Slightly above 10% |
| Electric truck share of sales and stock | 2030, world, STEPS | About 13% of sales; 3% of stock |
Electric light-duty vehicles, a category that includes cars and vans, are projected to reach around 40% of global light-duty-vehicle sales in 2030 under STEPS. These figures are scenario outputs rather than predictions, using policies and assumptions available through February 2025. Global EV Outlook 2025 – Outlook for electric mobility
Electric Truck Adoption Statistics by Region
Truck adoption is accelerating, but the regional pattern is uneven. The IEA reports that global electric-truck sales grew nearly 80% in 2024 and reached close to 2% of total truck sales, with China accounting for about 75,000 vehicles and more than 80% of global sales. Global EV Outlook 2025 – Executive summary
China’s medium- and heavy-duty electric-truck sales share rose from 2% in 2023 to above 4% in 2024. Battery-electric heavy trucks also reached almost 15% of monthly sales in late June 2024, a peak monthly observation rather than an annual average. Global EV Outlook 2025 – Outlook for electric mobility
The 2025 regional series shows where the next layer of deployment appeared:
| Region or country | 2025 electric-truck sales | Change or composition |
|---|---|---|
| North America | 20,000 | Up 25% year over year |
| United States | 17,000 | Up 25%; more than 95% medium-freight trucks |
| Canada | 2,700 | Up 35% |
| United Kingdom | Above 3,000 | Up more than 55% |
| France | 1,900 | Up more than 15% |
| Sweden | 1,000 | More than double 2024 |
| Rest of world outside China, Europe and North America | 1,900 | Down 15% |
The United States figure includes Rivian delivery vans above 3.5 tonnes classified as medium-freight trucks; Rivian sold nearly 10,000 such electric medium-freight trucks in 2025. India’s electric-truck registrations increased from 200 in 2024 to around 800 in 2025, but registrations are not necessarily deliveries or active fleet stock.

Electric Van and Truck Fleet Deployment Trends
Commercial deployment is also visible in model availability and light-commercial-vehicle sales. The number of battery-electric truck models grew from fewer than 70 in 2020 to more than 400 in 2024, a measure of available models rather than sales or fleet deployment. Global EV Outlook 2025 – Executive summary
Electric light-commercial-vehicle sales exceeded 600,000 worldwide in 2024 after growing more than 40% year over year. Their sales share reached 7% of global LCV sales, up from 5% in 2023. Global EV Outlook 2025 – Outlook for electric mobility
Range capability is expanding, although model capability is not the same as route performance:
- Twenty-five battery-electric medium-freight-truck models, more than 10% of the 2025 BEV-MFT model set, offered at least 400 km of range.
- Average daily long-haul driving needs cited by the IEA range from 400 to 1,000 km; this is an external cited estimate, not a universal fleet average.
- A 45-minute EU driver rest period can add about 150 km of heavy-truck range with a 350 kW charger.
- The same rest period can add up to about 400 km with a megawatt charger, an upper-bound technical estimate.
The charging-duration and range figures depend on vehicle configuration, conditions and charger performance. Global EV Outlook 2025 – Executive summary
Fleet Charging Infrastructure Statistics and Capacity
More than 1.3 million public charging points were added worldwide in 2024, over 30% more than the prior year. Public charging points more than doubled from 2022 to exceed 5 million globally in 2024, while about two-thirds of public-charger growth since 2020 occurred in China. Global EV Outlook 2025 – Electric vehicle charging
China held about 65% of global public charging points and 60% of the electric light-duty-vehicle stock in 2024. Europe’s public charging stock grew more than 35% to just over 1 million points, and 11 of the EU’s 27 countries increased their public charging stock by more than 50%.
| Location | Public charging stock at the stated period |
|---|---|
| Netherlands, end-2024 | Over 180,000 |
| Germany, end-2024 | 160,000 |
| France, end-2024 | 155,000 |
| United States, 2024 | Just under 200,000, up 20% |
The country figures are rounded and use public charging-point stock, not all ports or private fleet chargers. Ultra-fast public chargers rated at least 150 kW grew about 50% in 2024 and represented nearly 10% of public fast chargers. Global EV Outlook 2025 – Electric vehicle charging
In the IEA 2030 STEPS, around 150 million charging points are added from 2025 through 2030 for light-duty EVs: almost two-thirds at home, 30% other private and 8% public. The modeled ratio of electric light-duty vehicles per public charging point rises from about 11 in 2024 to around 14 in 2030, but utilization and geographic access vary.

Electric Fleet Costs, Utilization and Operating Outcomes
Fleet economics depend on energy prices, annual mileage, charger utilization, vehicle configuration and route requirements. The available estimates therefore describe specific cases rather than a universal electric-fleet cost.
In China, battery-electric heavy-freight trucks have a similar total cost of ownership (TCO) to LNG trucks, and both deliver more than a 10% TCO reduction versus diesel under the IEA’s 2025 prices and assumptions. In 2025, electric trucks exceeded LNG trucks in China’s new-truck sales, taking over 25% of the market versus 15% for natural-gas trucks. Global EV Outlook 2025 – Executive summary; Global EV Outlook 2026 – Trends in other EV modes
Chinese diesel prices rose 35% from 2020 to 2022 and remained about 25% above 2020 prices in following years. LNG at Chinese refuelling stations generally cost USD 4–5 per kilogram in recent years through 2025, while an IEA illustration estimated that, at 100,000 km annual mileage, operating an LNG truck instead of diesel could save more than USD 13,000 per vehicle-year; that is not an electric-versus-diesel saving.

Electric Fleet Manufacturing, Supply Chains and Policy Outlook
Production is scaling faster than international trade. Global electric-truck production reached around 440,000 vehicles in 2025, more than twice 2024 production; over 90% was concentrated in China and just over 3% in the European Union.
Only around 3% of global production—just over 12,000 vehicles—was traded internationally. Global EV Outlook 2026 – Manufacturing and trade
China produced over 400,000 electric trucks in 2025, more than its cumulative production from 2020 through 2024, and exports were less than 0.5% of that output. New entrants without conventional models captured almost 30% of China’s electric-truck market.
EU production doubled in 2025 to more than 13,000 vehicles, while EU electric-truck exports exceeded 2,500, about 20% of production; about 40% of those exports went to the United Kingdom. Global EV Outlook 2026 – Manufacturing and trade
Battery supply is geographically concentrated: CATL supplied 80% of batteries in China’s electric-truck market in 2025, around 70% of trucks sold in the EU used cells made by battery manufacturers headquartered in China, Japan or Korea, and nearly 90% of US electric trucks sold in 2025 had batteries made by Korean or Japanese companies. The headquarters-based measure does not necessarily identify cell production location. Global EV Outlook 2026 – Manufacturing and trade
For heavy-duty vehicles, the IEA projects more than 500,000 chargers by 2035 in STEPS, with most serving truck depots. In the Current Policies Scenario, HDV charging points rise from around 2 million in 2025 to more than 11 million in 2035, with depot charging accounting for 99% of the projected 2035 stock; this scenario mix does not remove the operational importance of public en-route charging. Global EV Outlook 2026 – Electric vehicle charging
The IEA uses different vehicle boundaries across editions: the 2026 truck series includes medium- and heavy-freight trucks and classifies delivery vans above 3.5 tonnes as medium-freight trucks. Sales, registrations, production, fleet stock and charging-point stock should therefore be read as different denominators, while STEPS and CPS figures are scenarios rather than predictions.
