- Electric cars and plug-in hybrids could come to represent 35 percent of new light-duty vehicle sales by 2040, according to a recent report by Bloomberg New Energy Finance.
- By 2040, they expect electric-car sales to hit 41 million units, around 90 times the number sold in 2015.
- Electric cars could also represent about a quarter of the vehicles on world roads by that date, according to Bloomberg.

- Those cars would save 13 million barrels of crude oil per day, but also consume 1,900 terawatt-hours of electricity--equivalent to 8 percent of global electricity demand in 2015.
- Analysts generally view $100 per kWh as the point at which electric cars become cost-competitive with internal combustion.
