EV sales rose above 2023 levels for only the 2nd time this year, according to latest SIMI stats While sales were up 59.3% last month compared to November 2023, EV sales are still 24.2% below last year's results due to Government grant cuts & misinformation www.irishevs.com/new-governme... #GE24

A graph showing electric vehicle sales in Ireland for 2022, 2023 and 2024. Aside from January and November 2024, 2023 was by far the most successful year for EV sales until Government grants were cut in July, causing a significant drop off

While we have the highest electricity prices in Europe, that isn't the biggest factor The main reasons are twofold: 1) The Government cut grants in 2023 - with an immediate drop off in sales 2) Enormous amounts of misinformation in the Irish press www.irishevs.com/ev-adoption-...

The government cut incentives last summer and sales immediately plummeted But, as the article outlines, we have a very small media landscape here that is rife with greenwashing, mis/disinformation that has compounded the issue alongside other culture wars
