There is “force being applied” in the form of EU fleet-wide emissions requirements.

Automakers must sell increasing numbers of full electric and/or hybrid vehicles in order to meet their emissions targets, otherwise they face potentially huge fines.

This can only force the auto makers to make electric cars attractive, but the customer does have a choice and chooses more electric cars.
