Global Plug-In Electric Car Sales Exceeded 10 Million In 2022

December was a record month with more than 1.2 million units sold around the world.

December brought a massive record of global passenger plug-in electric sales, taking the full year volume beyond 10 million units.

According to EV-Volumes data, shared by Jose Pontes, some 1,264,645 new passenger plug-in electric cars were registered in December. That's about 39 percent increase compared to a year ago and a new monthly record (compared to 1.06 million in November).

One of the most spectacular things is that rechargeable cars accounted for 21 percent of the total car sales globally, including 15 percent for all-electric cars.

Plug-in car registrations:

• BEVs: about *900,000 (up 57% year-over-year) and 15% share
• PHEVs: about *360,000 (up 46% year-over-year) and 6% share
• Total: 1,264,645 (up 39% year-over-year) and 21% share

During the 12 months of the year, more than 10 million new passenger plug-in electric cars were registered globally for the very first time.

That's a 55 percent increase year-over-year, compared to some 6.5 million plug-in electric cars sold in 2021.

The average market share amounted to 14 percent, including 10 percent for all-electric cars. It basically means that one in ten new passenger cars was all-electric. A pretty amazing milestone.

Plug-in car registrations year-to-date:

• BEVs: about *7.2 million and 10% share
• PHEVs: about *2.9 million and 4% share
• Total: 10,091,164 (up 55% year-over-year) and roughly 14% share
