More Electric Car News: Glow-in-the-Dark Nissan Leaf on Phosphorescent Road
The electric-car-sharing service seems to have had a positive influence on the Paris electric car market—electric car registrations between the fourth quarters of 2013 and 2014 rose from 2,773 to 4, 248, an increase of over 65%, despite a stagnant overall French car market.
In the UK, it seems that a similar increase is already on the way, especially for plug-in electric cars (rather than hybrid gas/electric cars). Plug-in car registrations rose almost 400% from January 2014 to January 2015.
