Norway has the highest number of electric cars in Europe relative to its total passenger vehicles.

According to Eurostat data, Oslo leads the continent with a density of 26.49%, followed by the western Norwegian county of Vestland at 22.08%, and neighbouring Trøndelag at 18.86%.

In the EU, the top spots are held by the Dutch provinces of Flevoland (12.77%), Utrecht (6.64%) and Sweden’s Stockholm (6.6%).

It’s worth noting, however, that some Norwegian regions have very small populations. For instance, Jan Mayen and Svalbard has only around 2,600 residents.

Which areas have the lowest number of electric cars?

In contrast, Turkey has the highest number of areas with almost no electric car registrations, along with some Spanish overseas territories and Greek islands. This is primarily due to the insufficient number of EV charging stations in certain regions.

In mainland Europe, the lowest numbers are mainly in Serbia and Greece.

Who owns the most cars overall in Europe?

EU citizens own an average of 0.56 passenger cars per inhabitant, says Eurostat.

The top three regions with the highest rates are all in the mountainous northern part of Italy: The Aosta Valley, with nearly two and a half cars per resident (2,399/1,000), the Trento Province (1,431/1,000) and the Bolzano Province (935/1000).

Favourable taxation policies influence the record rate of car ownership in Aosta Valley.

At the other end of the scale is the French overseas region of Mayotte, with 83 passenger cars per 1,000 inhabitants, followed by Greece’s Peloponnisos (203/1,000) and another French overseas department, Guyane (217/1,000).

Several European capitals also rank among the areas with the lowest rates of cars per thousand inhabitants, including Berlin (338), Vienna (375), Stockholm (400), Brussels (402), and the Amsterdam region of North Holland (434).

A top Hamas commander responsible for the heinous Oct. 7 attack on Kibbutz Nir Oz has been killed by a targeted drone strike, the Israel Defense Force (IDF) announced.

Abd al-Hadi Sabah, who led the infiltration into Kibbutz Nir Oz, which ravaged the community near the Gaza border on Oct. 7, was killed on Tuesday local time in the Western Khan Yunis Battalion.

The IDF said in a release on social media Tuesday that they conducted the intelligence-based strike alongside the Israeli Security Agency (ISA). 

The agencies said that Sabah was hiding in a shelter in the designated humanitarian area in Khan Yunis, in southern Gaza.
