2025: BEV sales up in China, stable in Europe, down in the USA
08 July 2025

- Global sales of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) reached 3,650,636 units in the first four months of 2025, representing an increase of 37.7% compared to the first four months of 2024, when the figure did not exceed 2,650,288 units. This represents an additional one million BEVs registered in the first four months of 2025, while the global automotive market is stable, due to uncertainties regarding the economic situation caused by the protectionism of States wishing to challenge the rules of international trade.

- In this context, China is increasing its lead over other countries with 2,109,406 BEVs in the first four months of 2025, compared to 1,351,906 in the first four months of 2024, approaching 25% of the local market share.

- Europe ranks second behind China, with 758,185 BEVs registered in the first four months of 2025, compared to 593,301 in the first four months of 2024, representing a 17% share of the local market.

- The United States ranks third, with 407,756 BEVs registered in the first four months of 2025, compared to 368,918 in the first four months of 2024, representing a 7.6% share of the local market.

- While BEV market share in the first four months of 2025 is increasing in China and appears stable in Europe, it is declining in the United States month after month, as if the Trump administration's anti-BEV rhetoric is becoming reality.

- In Japan, BEV market share is also declining this year, although it remains very low (16,290 units representing 1.2% of the market share over four months of 2025). Japanese carmakers will have a lot to do to reverse this trend.

Germany produces 4 times more cars than France
25 June 2025

- Germany has been the European country that produces the most vehicles (passenger cars and utility vehicles) since 1956, after having supplanted Great Britain, which had been the leader in this industry since 1945. France became the second largest European carmaker in 1969, after having supplanted Great Britain. It remained so until 2009, when Spain overtook it.

- France:

• France began to relocate part of its production from the beginning of the 2000s, first to Spain and Portugal, then to Eastern European countries, such as the Czech Republic, Slovakia and Slovenia.

• Its production volume gradually declined from 3.5 million vehicles (passenger cars and light utility vehicles) per year to 2.0 million in 2009. Today, it is around 1.5 million vehicles per year.

• If we only take into account passenger cars (PC), production in France has been below one million units since 2020.

- Germany:

• Germany began relocating about a dozen years later than France, first to Spain and Portugal, then to Eastern European countries such as the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland and Hungary.

• Its production volume gradually declined from 6.0 million vehicles (passenger cars + utility vehicles) per year to 3.5 million in 2021. In 2024, this volume rebounded to 4.5 million units, three times more than France.

• If we only consider passenger cars (PC), production in Germany will reach 4 million units in 2024.

- In conclusion, Germany today produces 4 times more passenger cars than France and 3 times more passenger cars + utility vehicles than France.
