Overview
- Brazil sold about 223,912 electrified vehicles in 2025, up roughly 26% year over year and accounting for around 13% of new‑car sales.
- Plug‑in hybrids led Brazil’s electrified mix with approximately 101,394 registrations, while fully electric models totaled about 80,178.
- BYD, GWM and Comexport began local BEV and PHEV production in 2025, broadening supply and model choice that ABVE links to the sales surge.
- December set a monthly record for Brazil’s electrified registrations at 33,905 units, even as high borrowing costs continued to weigh on the broader market.
- The UK recorded 473,340 BEV registrations in 2025—about one quarter of the market—with SMMT warning BEVs must reach roughly one in three this year to meet zero‑emission targets, and a September cyberattack forced Jaguar Land Rover to pause production for about a month.
