One of the worst color schemes I've ever seen in a chart. At least it's interactive.

Finally a diagram that is inclusive for the colorblind, by being equally bad for everyone.

So bad it might fit in on dataisbeautiful

Legend has ten entries, all blue. Graph only shows six lines of data. This monstrosity would fit perfectly there.

They've changed out the chart, but it's still bad:

Colour scheme is unchanged but at least its clear(ish) which of the six is which. Ford, Volvo, Tesla, and Daimler Mercedes-Benz are still squashed at the bottom having apparently zero sales.

it matches CNBC's reporting. All coming from the people they trust, the sponsors.

Are you sure you don’t have a color blindness simulator running, because WOW.

Even in the West, "fueling" an electric vehicle is cheaper than fueling a gas guzzler. Especially if you have a solar array at home.

And then there's China and India where electricity is already 1/3 to 1/8th the cost of most of the West.
