The media may try to convince you otherwise, but the truth is that electric car sales have actually been on the rise so far this year.

The top-selling electric cars in the world this year include the Tesla Model Y, which continues to dominate the market. Other popular models include the Tesla Model 3, the BYD Dolphin Mini, and the Wuling Hongan Mini EV.
