The popularity of electric vehicles (EVs) has skyrocketed in the last ten years. This has led several countries to plan bans on gasoline-fueled vehicles, such as diesel cars, between 2025 and 2050.
According to Charged Future, the number of countries per region with regulations banning diesel-fueled cars in the future is as follows:
1. Europe - 15 countries
2. Asia - 8 countries
3. America - 3 countries
4. Africa - 1 country
European countries lead the way with 15 countries banning diesel-fueled vehicles, followed by Asia with 8. America has 3 countries (in the United States, the ban applies only to certain states), and Africa has 1.
However, not all countries have been able to formalize these plans into official regulations. This process is lengthy, requiring significant political compromise and investment.
Given the high cost of electric vehicles, governments need to provide subsidies to boost sales. Substantial investment is also required to build infrastructure, particularly for battery charging stations and new power plants.
