Rankings
Definition
New battery electric passenger cars as a percentage of all new passenger car registrations in the year.
New registrations reported by national vehicle registers to Eurostat. Battery electric cars run only on electricity; plug-in hybrids are counted separately by Eurostat and are not included here.
How it is calculated
Invokely calculation: new battery electric cars divided by all new passenger cars, times 100, both from Eurostat road_eqr_carpda for the same country and year.
Inputs
- New battery electric car registrations (2025): 1,888,016, Eurostat
- New passenger car registrations (2025): 10,937,447, Eurostat
