Demand for EVs (BEVs and PHEVs combined) more than doubled in 2020 compared to 2019 in Europe, with a 147% increase from 575,000 to 1.42 million units sold.

That represented 12% of the new passenger car registrations throughout the year, with one of four battery-electric vehicles (BEVs) registered on the continent being made by the Volkswagen Group.

According to data posted by Jato, the second best-selling car in Europe last month was the VW ID.3. 27,997 units of the electric hatchback were sold, followed by 24,567 units of the Tesla Model 3. The gold medal went to the Golf, while the Renault Clio, Peugeot 208 and Toyota Yaris superminis followed in the fourth, fifth, and sixth positions respectively.

“Europe is getting ready for an EV revolution and last month’s results are a clear indicator that when these cars have the right price attached to them, they can lure consumer demand away from popular gasoline and diesel models”, said Jato’s global analyst Felipe Munoz.

However, the overall best-selling EV in Europe for 2020 was none other than the Renault Zoe. From January to December 2020, Europeans chose the Renault Zoe 99,261 times, a 118% increase over 2019. The overall demand for the Tesla Model 3 dropped by 9 percent, but the electric sedan still managed to grab hold of the second position, with 85,713 units sold, and the VW ID.3 completed the podium with 56,118 examples.

Other popular BEVs sold on the Old Continent included the Hyundai Kona Electric, VW e-Golf, Peugeot e-208, Kia e-Niro, Nissan Leaf, Audi E-Tron and BMW i3, in this order.

The plug-in hybrid (PHEV) battle was won by Mercedes-Benz, with the A-Class (29,427 units), which was followed by the Mitsubishi Outlander (26,673 units) and Volvo XC40 (26,506 units).

Full-year registrations, on the other hand, fell by 24% to 11,941,633 vehicles.
