Overview

  • Germany registered around 45,500 new electric vehicles in April 2025, marking a 53.5% year-on-year increase and the highest monthly total since December 2023.
  • Electric vehicles accounted for nearly 19% of all new passenger car registrations, while plug-in hybrids held a 10% share and non-plug-in hybrids led with 28%.
  • The Volkswagen ID.7 topped EV sales for the fourth consecutive month, with 3,133 new registrations in April, and remains the best-selling EV in 2025 so far.
  • The rebound in EV sales continues despite the end of state subsidies in late 2023, signaling strong consumer demand and narrowing price gaps with combustion vehicles.
  • Globally, the International Energy Agency projects EVs and plug-in hybrids will make up 25% of new car sales in 2025, with China driving much of the growth.
