All green lights! 🚦🟢 - #ElectricVehicles uptake across Europe ⚡️🚘 🇩🇪 Germany and 🇫🇷 France approaching 20% BEV share 🇪🇸 Spain for the first time going above 10% BEV share, with a +154%(!) growth rate 🇮🇹Italy now at 5% BEV share 🇬🇧 Not part of EU, UK approaching 30% BEV share theicct.org/publication/...
📢Is Europe on track to meet its car CO₂ targets?🚗🇪🇺 The ICCT is launching a new report to assess the progress of EV transition ahead of the @ec.europa.eu review of the CO2 standards . The EV Transition Check✅ 📅 22 September, 3 PM 📍Brussels Register at 👉https://thecct.org/ev-transition-check-2025/
🚗⚡ A new edition of the European Car Market Monitor is out—this time with a global twist. Emerging markets are quickly catching up with, and even surpassing, Europe's electric car market. 🔎 Explore all details: theicct.org/publication/european-market-monitor-cars-vans-may-2025-jun25
⚡ Our latest European Car Market Monitor is out! 📈 The average share of BEVs among new registrations in Europe rose to 17% in April, up 1 percentage point from March. Combined with plug-in hybrids, the average rose to 26%, a 2 percentage point increase from March. theicct.org/publication/...

🇬🇧The UK government recently concluded a consultation on its flagship regulation to drive the transition to electric vehicles: the Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) Mandate. The results are now public.⚡🚗 We’ve examined the details of the proposed outcomes: theicct.org/risks-of-the...
#ElectricVehicle market data for April just came out 🚘⚡️ 🇩🇪 Germany overtook 🇨🇵 France, approaching 19% of battery-electric vehicles. Plug-in hybrids make up another 10% in Germany. See also our #MarketMonitor, including vans and charging infrastructure data: lnkd.in/dwSW995K @theicct.org
#ElectricVehicle market data for Q1/2025 looks good 🚘⚡️ March values are out now. See also our @theicct.org #MarketMonitor: theicct.org/publication/... (the April edition will be out in about two weeks)
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. ‼️ See our @theicct.org explainer: lnkd.in/dBk5qDFw
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.💨 👉 theicct.org/icct-comment...
#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. For more details see our #MarketMonitor: lnkd.in/dSZ7mN79 (March edition out in about 2 weeks)
"If things go bad for #Tesla and they don't sell enough cars this year, they might not have enough credits for what they promised Stellantis and the others, Tesla is under pressure." #ICCT's @petermock.bsky.social speaking to #Politico's @jordyndahl.bsky.social. www.politico.eu/article/tesl...
Tesla’s plummeting sales risk its lucrative emissions credit earnings
CEO Elon Musk has angered European customers and governments, undercutting his EV brand.

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.
📊 Our European #MarketMonitor for cars is out! #EVs In January, battery electric cars’ share of the market was 16%, 1% point down from the previous month. This is an increase of roughly 5% points over January 2024. 👉 theicct.org/publication/european-market-monitor-cars-vans-jan-2025-feb25

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. lnkd.in/drSysjNk
⚡ 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.
January 2025 #ElectricVehicle and #HybridVehicle uptake for the biggest European markets looks good. In about a week, our 'Market Monitor' will provide the details for all countries and manufacturers. In the meantime, take a look at the latest edition, with the full data for 2024: lnkd.in/dgV5k-iY
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.
Renault CEO Luca de Meo publicly confirmed that the company will be able to meet the EU new car #CO2standards in 2025, in an interview earlier this week. He is not the first CEO to do so, as earlier statements from BMW and Stellantnis show. OEMs have a number of compliance options: lnkd.in/dCttHZ8C
Kicking off the thematic workshops, I had a constructive meeting with representatives of the automotive sector. We exchanged on infrastructure and how to stimulate demand for electric vehicles.
During yesterday's meeting with Commissioners @wopkehoekstra.ec.europa.eu & Jessika Roswall, one re-occuring theme was the recommendation not to modify existing regulation on new vehicle #CO2standards, to ensure planning & investment security and to strengthen consumers‘ trust in electric vehicles.
Today I'm in Brussels, as part of @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu's Strategic Dialogue on the auto-industry. Re-assuring to see #ElectricVehicle shares rise quickly, e.g. in DE w. 50% increase in Jan25 (vs. Jan24). Good basis for discussing how demand side & infrastructure measures can further support.
2025 CO2 targets getting further in reach: #Mercedes forms pool with Volvo and Polestar, now requiring only max. 4%p battery-EV share increase throughout 2025. Same for the new #Stellantis pool w. Tesla. Read our @theicct.bsky.social report for more compliance options: theicct.org/publication/...
