To understand the scale: in June last year, electric cars accounted for 80% of the market. Over the year, the number of electric cars increased by almost 3.8 thousand units.
Traditional engines and hybrid systems are losing ground every month. In June, only 152 plug-in hybrids were registered — that's 83.7% less than last year, and 223 conventional hybrids were registered, corresponding to a drop of 89.1%. Diesel cars took only 0.8% of the market (142 cars), and petrol cars — 0.3% (57 cars).
The Tesla Model Y remains the most in demand, as before: in June, 5,004 such cars were registered, which is more than a quarter of the entire market. The top ten most popular models of the month also included the Toyota bZ4X, VW ID.4, Tesla Model 3, BYD Sealion 7, VW ID.3, Skoda Enyaq, Volvo EX30, VW ID.7, and Volvo EX40.
For the first six months of 2025, the Tesla Model Y also remains the undisputed leader with 11,006 registrations. Next come the Toyota bZ4X (4,801 cars), VW ID.4 (3,923 cars), VW ID.7 (3,075 cars), and VW ID.3 (2,953 cars). Notably, the Nissan Ariya, which holds sixth place for the half-year, ended up only in 11th position in the June ranking.
In total, from January to June, 75,515 new cars were sold in Norway, which is 23% more than in the same period of 2024. Electric vehicles are gradually becoming the standard, and cars with internal combustion engines are a rare exception.
