Tesla Model Y Wins UK Bestseller Spot In March, Record BEV Volumes
The UK saw plugin electric vehicles take 22.4% of the auto market in March, down from 22.7% year on year. BEVs saw fractional market share growth YoY, and a new volume record, whilst PHEVs saw a slight decline. Combustion-only powertrains lost 2.5% share YoY. Overall auto volume was 287,825 units, up some 18% YoY, though still some 19% down from March 2019 levels. The Tesla Model Y was the UK’s overall best selling auto in March.
Hybrids and mild hybrids continued to see strong growth in the UK, with 32.3% combined share of the overall market . This category, however, is a temporary transition technology away from combustion-only, but will itself give way to plugins, and eventually to almost entirely BEVs. HEVs and mild-hybrids are offered by manufacturers as a quick and relatively cheap way to improve fleet emissions, compared to ICE-only vehicles.
Second placed brand was MG, now offering 3 great value BEVs in the UK market , of which the MG4 was the second best seller after the Model Y. Audi rounded out the top three spots. Stellantis brands, having had a slow January and February, returned to better form in March, with Citroën especially returning to volumes not seen since Spring 2022 , almost all of them the e-C4 compact SUV.
