That is why the "oil demand related to passenger cars" is predicted to "plateau within the next ten years" and "decline during the second part of the forecast period," the outlook read.
Nevertheless, the global oil demand for the road transport sector is predicted to stand at 47 million barrels per day in 2045, as opposed to 44.4 mb/d recorded in 2019, the document unveiled.
