About this ranking

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.

Every value in the ranking comes from the same publisher and the same period, so the EU countries are compared on one definition. Equal values share a rank.
