Electrification targets of some automakers

The automotive industry is currently experiencing a shift towards electric mobility, with an increasing number of carmakers pledging to phase out internal combustion engines and transition to fully electric vehicles. As governments around the world implement stricter emission regulations and consumers demand more sustainable modes of transportation, carmakers are setting ambitious electric vehicle (EV) targets to remain competitive in the market. In this context, we present a list of some of the major carmakers and their EV targets, highlighting the scale of their commitments to the electric future of transportation.
