Germany plug-in car sales more than tripled in June

EV and PHEV sales in Germany are up more than three-fold year-on-year.  They are 23% of the total market, which is way past the 5% tipping point.  It's very hard to see any future for petrol/diesel cars.   And those who think it'll take until 2040 for EVs to dominate car sales are in my opinion completely wrong--2025 looks far more likely.

From InsideEVs


In June, new passenger car registrations in Germany increased almost 25% year-over-year to 274,152, but it's still far from over 325,000 two years ago.

On the positive side, passenger plug-in car registrations increased 243% year-over-year to almost 65,000 (the second-best result ever), which represents 23.6% of the entire market.

This time, all-electric car sales not only sold at a slightly higher volume but also expanded quicker year-over-year than plug-in hybrids.

Results by type:

  • BEVs: 33,420 – up 312% at 12.2% market share
  • PHEVs: 31,314 – up 191% at 11.4% market share
  • Total: 64,734 – up 243% at 23.6% market share


So far this year, more than 312,000 new passenger plug-in cars were registered in Germany, which is 233% more than a year ago. It's the largest plug-in market in Europe.

New registrations year-to-date:

  • BEVs: 148,716 – up 236% at 10.7% market share
  • PHEVs: 163,571 – up 230% at 11.8% market share
  • Total: 312,287 – up 233% at 22.5% market share
