🚗 Our European car market monitor is now available.

In August, a month usually slow for car sales, battery electric vehicles (BEVs) reached an average 19% market share of new registrations across Europe.

That’s 2 percentage points higher than in July.

The difference between 'try hard' and 'take it easy'? 🧐 - The 3-year #averaging of automaker CO2 emissions, as proposed by the European Commission today.

This amendment will likely lead to 5-7 g/km higher #emissions in 2025. ‼️

The @ec.europa.eu is expected to present a targeted amendment to revise the CO2 standards regulation for cars and vans.

This will introduce an averaging mechanism.

We’ve estimated the climate impact of this change: an additional 26-51 megatonnes of CO2 emissions.💨

🇬🇧 The UK continues to lead the market, with more than one third of all new vehicles being electric (BEV + PHEV), thanks to the UK's Zero-and-Low-Emission-Vehicle #ZLEVmandate setting a target of 28% for 2025.

🇮🇹 🇪🇦 In Italy and Spain, BEV shares remain at a lower level, but are much stronger than at the same time around in 2024 (+38% and +54%). #Hybrid-cars, another compliance option for manufacturers, are especially popular in Spain.

🇨🇵 In France, the #SocialLeasing program was introduced in Jan 2024 but ended already again in Feb 2024, due to overwhelming success. Comparing Jan/Feb 2025 to Jan/Feb 2024 data, it therefore seems as if the BEV share is slightly declining, but in reality, with 18% it is as strong as in Germany.

🇩🇪 In Germany, BEVs accounted for ~18% of new car registrations in Feb, going up from 15% in Dec and 17% in Jan. PHEVs made up another 10%.

#ElectricVehicle market data for February 2025 looks great 🚘 💪 📈, and yet @ec.europa.eu President Ursula von der Leyen is about to give in on exaggerated lobby claims and to weaken the 2025 #CO2standards.

Today, the European Commission proposed relaxing 2025 CO₂ emissions targets for car manufacturers.

This risks delaying Europe's transition to electric vehicles and harming the competitiveness of its automotive industry, says ICCT Europe Director @petermock.bsky.social.

Plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs) in reality consume about 4 times more fuel than advertised. Data for >1 million vehicles, collected and published by the @eea.europa.eu shows that instead of ~1.5 liters/100km, PHEVs consume more like 6 liters.

⚡ Electric cars in Germany are likely to become more affordable in 2025 🚗 

“2024 was a transitional year: CO₂ targets for automakers remained at 2021 levels, with no additional incentive to increase EV sales beyond what was necessary,” explains @petermock.bsky.social, ICCT Europe Director.

A 'phase-in', as suggested by ACEA, would primarily benefit the German manufacturers, less so Stellantis and Renault Group. It would weaken the EU #CO2standards for new cars by about 8 g/km in 2025. Cumulatively, these higher emissions would add up in the following years.

Having worked in the field for more than 20 years, it is now already the 3rd time that I witness carmakers exaggerating compliance costs ahead of a next stage of the EU's #CO2standards for new vehicles.
