Annual frequency A, counts NR; percentage = 100 × ELC / TOTAL for the same country and year, rounded to four decimals in data, displayed to one decimal. Shares of annual new passenger-car registrations, not of the vehicle fleet or cumulative counts; hybrids excluded. Four selected countries, not an EU-wide ranking.
