There are further differences than the four you mention here. I don't care to check every country, but Swedes are e.g. allowed to travel to Turkey without a visa, while Dutch citizens require a visa for travel to Turkey.

eVisa (in this context) just means that you can apply for the visa online instead of visiting a Turkish embassy or consulate. An application for a Turkish eVisa may of course be rejected, just as any other visa application.

Well, of course it can be rejected, but so can a visa-on-arrival. I meant that I think that this is still counted towards the count of 172.

@Tor-EinarJarnbjo And so can entry when you already have a visa or don't need one at all. But the Turkish e-visa was rolled out as an alternative to the visa-on-arrival, not as a new way to apply for a regular Turkish visa. You just need to provide basic info and pay a small fee, no need to send your passport or any supporting documentation. It seems closer to an ESTA than a traditional visa so it makes sense to include it in this context.

@Relaxed: And because of that (you can be denied entry to a country even if you don't need a visa), these counts are not very useful for any purpose at all. The Henley Index lists however the "Number of countries and territories which can be entered without a visa by a citizen of the respective country", so it does not make sense to include countries, for which you either need a visa-on-arrival or a pre-arranged electronic visa.
