Hybrid cars in Europe over the first 7 months of 2017
- Non-rechargeable hybrid cars sold 228,881 units in the first seven months of 2017 in Europe, for 2.4% of the European market (29 countries) over the period. Their sales rose 58.4% compared to the first seven months of 2016, notably thanks to the recent Toyota CHR and the new Hyundai-Kia models, the Niro and Ioniq.
- In 2017, non-rechargeable hybrid cars sold three times more than rechargeable hybrids. The offer is more concentrated (mainly Toyota, Lexus and Hyundai-Kia), but vehicles are cheaper than rechargeable hybrids and do not need recharging to increase their range.
- The five main markets in Europe for this type of vehicle are England (36,000 sales over 7 months 2017), France (34,000 sales), Italy (32,000 sales), Spain (27,000 sales) and Germany (25,000 sales). These five markets account for two-thirds of hybrid sales in Europe.
- In the first seven months of 2017, the Toyota CHR is the market leader (47,500 sales), ahead of Toyota Yaris (44,500), Toyota Auris (32,500), Toyota RAV4 (22,000), Kia Niro (17500), Hyundai Ioniq (11,500) and ... Toyota Prius (10,500), which created the hybrid market in 1997. The Toyota Group (Toyota and Lexus) accounts for almost 85% of hybrid sales in Europe. The Hyundai-Kia Group accounts for almost 14% of hybrid sales in Europe.
