BEVs will represent 18% of the European market in 2025
03 December 2025

- According to passenger car sales figures recorded in Europe (30 countries = EU + UK + Norway + Switzerland) for the first nine months of 2025, the market share of BEVs in Europe will reach 18% for the whole of this year, compared to 16% for the whole of 2024.

- This is a welcome surprise after a 2024 marked by stagnant BEV sales, with their market share capped at 16%, whereas 2023 saw strong growth, with their market share rising from 14% to 16%. Logically, market share should have reached 18% in 2024 and 20% in 2025, based on the 2023 growth rate.

- Even though BEV sales growth resumed in 2025, at the same pace as in 2023, 2025 is two percentage points behind the expected growth. Therefore, 2026 will need to make up this shortfall so that BEVs reach a 22% market share by the end of the year. The growth in sales of small electric cars could help achieve this goal.

- Petrol engines still account for the largest share of passenger car sales in Europe, at 30% (a figure that has been steadily declining for several years), followed by mild hybrids (MHEVs), with 25% of the market, a figure that has been steadily increasing for several years. Non-plug-in hybrids (F-HEVs) represent 10% of the market, a figure that has been steadily increasing for several years, plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) account for 9% of the market (a slight increase compared to 2023 and 2024), and diesel vehicles represent 8% of the market (a figure that has been steadily declining for several years).

Chinese brands are taking advantage of the European market increase in 2025
18 November 2025

- The European automotive market at the end of September 2025 (30 countries = EU + UK + Switzerland + Norway) is showing signs of recovery, after a first half that ended with a 1% decline compared to the first half of 2024. At the end of September, the European market recorded a slight increase of 1.5% compared to the first nine months of 2024 (+146,500 sales).

- It should be noted, however, that this positive growth is solely attributable to the month of September (+10.7%), due to strong seasonal demand in the UK, as growth at the end of August did not exceed 0.3%. This growth could exceed 3% by the end of the year if the pace observed in September 2025 continues throughout the year. The most impressive phenomenon in September 2025 is the doubling of sales of Chinese brand cars, which went from 67,000 units in September 2024 to nearly 130,000 units in September 2025 (representing 10% of the European market including Volvo, Lotus and Smart, subsidiaries of the Chinese group Geely).

- In total, nearly 790,000 Chinese-branded cars were sold in Europe during the first nine months of 2025 (+214,500 sales compared to the first nine months of 2024, versus +68,000 sales for non-Chinese brands), representing a 5.4% market share year-to-date. It can therefore be said that Chinese brands boosted the European market in 2025.

- As a result, sales of 100% electric cars made a significant jump in September 2025 (+22%), driven by Chinese brands, with a market share of 21% for the month and 18% over the 9 months.
