Abstract Governments around the world have set goals to increase electric vehicles’ future market share. Therefore, fiscal policies as well as tax exemptions and subsidies are a famous instrument in spurring electric vehicle markets, but in widely divergent ways. These conditions are highlighted in this chapter. There are clear differences in the taxation benefits and sales of electric vehicles across the major vehicle markets: Asia, United States and Europe. This chapter indicates that fiscal incentives are not the only factor which influences the market growth of these vehicles. Besides that, demonstration projects also play an important role in terms of market growth. The data for this chapter have been collected from various information exchange meetings within the IEA, conferences from the Austrian Association for Advanced Propulsion Systems (A3PS) and from an ICCT report (Mock and Yang, http://www.theicct.org/sites/default/files/publications/ICCT_EV-fiscal-incentives_20140506.pdf , 2015) [1].
