Spain and Italy show exceptional BEV sales growth rates in 2025
- While six countries (Germany, United Kingdom, France, Norway, Netherlands, Belgium) still represent 71% of BEV sales in Europe 30 countries (EU + United Kingdom + Switzerland + Norway) in the first 4 months of 2025 – they represented 73% in the first 4 months of 2024 – weobserve that countries that have traditionally registered few BEVs have experienced spectacular growth rates over this period, even if the volumes recorded remain low, lower than the sales volume of BEVs in Norway, for example (39,565 units in the first 4 months of 2025). This may mean that some countries with low sales volume could catch up some of their losses in the coming years, but it is not certain that they will be at the same level or close to the level of the countries with the highest demand for BEVs. The countries that are now experiencing exceptional growth rates are:
1. Denmark: 34,107 units, up 56.8% (+12,354 BEV)
2. Italy: 29,637 units, up 79.4% (+13,117 BEV)
3. Spain: 26,060 units, up 71.2% (+10,840 BEV)
4. Austria: 19,867 units, up 41.6% (+5,833 BEVs)
5. Portugal: 15,897 units, up 29.8% (+3,650 BEV)
6. Poland: 7,659 units, up 40.4% (+2,204 BEV)
7. Czech Republic: 4,342 units, up 131.4% (+2,466 BEV)
- These seven countries alone brought in 50,000 more BEVs in the first four months of 2025 compared to the first four months of 2024. This represents 30% of the growth in BEV sales recorded in the first four months of 2025.
