Summary
In the first half of 2025, there had been an increase of more than a third, in the full year 2025 it was just under a third. That was a market share of 22 percent. In the EU, the UK, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Switzerland, PwC counted just under 1.6 million BEVs, 33 percent more than in the same period last year.
Furthermore, In a study of 43 important markets, the management consultancy PwC comes to around 6.6 million new registrations of purely battery-powered electric vehicles (BEVs). Because the overall market shrank in parallel, the pure electric vehicles there accounted for 44 percent of new registrations in the second quarter. According to PwC, the world’s largest electric car market by far shrank by 5 percent in the first half of the year to just under 3.6 million BEVs.
In addition, There was particularly strong growth in France, Italy and Germany, which was once again the largest single market in Europe before the United Kingdom and France. “Oil price developments act as an external accelerator for the spread of electromobility,” says Harald Wimmer from PwC. Crucial, however, is the technological maturity of the current model generation: high ranges, competitive prices and clear advantages in operating costs. Crucial to the slowdown is China. Things are much better in Europe.
