Sales volume of electric vehicles in Europe 2014-2020

Published by Statista Research Department, Sep 1, 2020
Throughout Europe, around 177,000 electric vehicles were sold in the second quarter of 2020, according to data provided by EV-Volumes. This includes sales battery electric vehicle (BEV) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) sales.

Spotlight: BEV registrations

Despite significant market disruption from the global pandemic in 2020, electric vehicle sales still saw tremendous year-on-year growth in 2020. The upward trend is indicative of the growing demand for electric vehicles worldwide and in Europe. In the European Union alone, car intenders bought more than 90,000 units of battery-electric vehicles in the fourth quarter of 2019.

Availability of charging stations

The rise in electric vehicle usage demands changes made to the transport infrastructure, including a sufficient number of publicly available electric vehicle charging stations. As of July 2019, there were 170,149 such charging stations across Europe, including for normal charge under or equal to 22 kilowatts as well as fast charge with over 22 kilowatts. Growth rates for recent years have slowed, suggesting a close to saturated market.
