There's not much point grumbling about an anecdote and supplying another.

The EU as a whole has 1.68% EVs out of all passenger cars, though it's about 15% of new cars. [1]

Here in Denmark BEVs are 5.68% of all passenger cars, and I'm sure it's higher where I live in Copenhagen. Over half of the taxis and buses are EVs, plus a good proportion of private vehicle. I won't guess, but I do see many EVs every time I go outside.

Agreed, just was too lazy for research and the OP EV praise was eye-roll inducing, so I just quickly offered an alternative perspective. Thanks for the actual numbers!
