September saw plugin EVs take 29.4% share of the UK auto market, up from 23.4% year on year. Both BEVs and PHEVs grew volume YoY, by 24% and 32% respectively. Overall auto volume was 275,239 units, up 1% YoY, but still far below pre-2020 seasonal norms (350,000+). Tesla was the leading BEV brand in September.
Is the UK contemplating tariffs on Chinese EVs?, if not that will be one of the few advantages of Brexit, as the EU has just agreed to mandate them.
Still unclear at the moment, but apparently unlikely: https://www.politico.eu/article/china-ev-imports-uk-labour-electric-keir-starmer/
