AMSTERDAM, Aug 14 They are best known for bike-riding, but the climate-vulnerable Dutch are leading the way for electric cars with the largest number of charging stations in Europe. Teslas and other vehicles can be seen plugged in on practically every street corner thanks to a network of some.
Around one in every five of the 400,000 new cars sold annually in the Netherlands is now electric, due partly to tax breaks and other incentives during the last decade.
