5. Electric Vehicles

Although electric vehicles have been are around for decades, it was recently that electric cars have become widely popular and in demand. The modern electric vehicle revolution started in 2012 when Tesla presented a production version of its best-selling Model S.

When car magazines reported that the Model S was an entirely usable and fast luxury sedan, buyers started paying attention and the electric car market was born. Even though it is not entirely certain that electric vehicles are here to stay, there are more of them every day. In fact, zero-emission cars are genuinely the biggest news of the car industry in the last 10 years.
