Italy has the highest number of cars per 1,000 inhabitants, while Latvia has the lowest.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Electrically chargeable cars continue to grow, up from 2.2% to 3.9% in 2023&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>There are roughly 30.1 million vans on EU roads, a 1.7% increase, with 1.3% being electrically chargeable.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>6 million trucks are now on EU roads, a 0.8% increase, with 0.1% being electrically chargeable. On average, trucks remain the oldest of all vehicle types at 14.1 years\u202f&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>There are now about 680,000 buses on EU roads, an increase of 0.9%, with 3% being electrically chargeable. Battery-electric models comprise over 10% of buses in four EU countries (Denmark, Ireland, Luxembourg, and the Netherlands)\u202f&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.acea.auto\/files\/ACEA_Report_-_Vehicles_on_European_roads_2025.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">report<\/a> demonstrates that while legislative targets can help steer change, this is only one small part of the puzzle, which is the decarbonisation of road transport. Europe needs a broad set of enabling conditions, such as charging infrastructure and purchase and tax incentives, to stimulate demand for new models and replenish vehicles on Europe\u2019s roads with the cleanest and greenest models.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n\t\t<blockquote class=\"shareable-blockquote\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"content\">This unique report provides a snapshot of what the \u2018fleet\u2019
