Bev's battery electric vehicles were reshaping Europe's car market this year. By the end of

0:12.8

0:19.6

That's up from 13.2% a year earlier, while sales of petrol and diesel continue to fall, and not just by a little, by double digits.

0:28.7

New figures from the European Automobile Manufacturers Association covering the first 10 months of the year show the increasing rise of plug-in vehicles.

cut price car rentals across America. More job adverts for rental readiness specialists across the

2:08.8
