A 28% rise in electric car sales boosted Europe’s new car market to its strongest year since the Covid pandemic, according to industry analyst Jato Dynamics.
A total of 12,792,151 cars were sold across Europe (including the UK) in 2023, up 22% on 2022 and a 7% increase over 2020.
Jato analyst Felipe Munoz hailed the increase as a normalisation of the market, with supply chain disruption from the pandemic largely resolved.
