This is so although by 2030 there are expected to be nearly five million sales per year in other BRICS countries and about 2.5 million in the rest of the world. After 2030, sales in other BRICS countries are projected to take off, and by 2050 there should be 30 million sales per year, with 24 million more in China. Together the five BRICS countries are expected to account for over half of the world's EV/PHEV vehicle sales.
