- While the market for battery electric vehicles (BEVs) in Europe (30 countries) declined slightly (-1.3%) in 2024 compared to 2023, with a volume of 1,993,102 sales compared to 2,019,401 the previous year, the production volume of this type of car in Europe (30 countries) declined more sharply (-7.0%) in 2024 compared to 2023, to 1.73 million units, according to Inovev. The decline in BEV sales in 2024 therefore affected models produced in Europe more than models produced outside Europe.
- Inovev has listed the European plants producing BEVs and estimated the production volume of these BEVs in 2024.
- Tesla's Gruenheideplant produced the highest number BEVs in Europe last year, with 216,409 units, according to Inovev. This will likely no longer be the case in 2025, as Tesla sales are currently plummeting in Europe (-37% in the first quarter) and all of the brand's models are affected.
- The second largest BEV plant in Europe in 2024 is VW Zwickau (203,242 units), followed by BMW Dingolfing (176,822 units) and VW Emden (108,423 units). German plants are therefore at the forefront.
- The leading French plant is fifth, Renault Douai (89,921 units), followed by the leading Czech plant, Skoda MladaBoleslav (82,538 units). These six factories accounted for 50% of BEV production in Europe.
- It should be noted that the battery electric vehicle market grew significantly in Europe (+27.9%) in the first quarter of 2025 compared to the first quarter of 2024, to 573,500 units compared to 448,228 a year earlier, which will boost BEV production in Europe during this period because European models produced in Europe seem to be the first beneficiaries of this growth.
