Germany is already at 18% and rising rapidly, there doesn't seem to be a problem selling EV cars even in larger countries. Norway is 80% but they have oil money, but even Sweden is at 32% and they are sparsely populated and not richer than Germany.

So I see no reason why banning non EV by 2030 in some countries is impossible, Germany and many similar countries are ahead of the curve needed to get there.

There is no evidence to suggest the rate will increase but evidence that it will decrease. The demand for non-EV worldwide is growing rapidly and if Germany doesn't want to compete on this market there will be other countries standing in line.
