Taking advantage of Tesla’s troubles, the Citroën ë-C3 becomes the best-selling electric car in France in May 2025.
Citroën marks a turning point in its electric strategy. In May 2025, the ë-C3 becomes the best-selling electric car in France across all channels. In an overall gloomy context, this success confirms the French people’s attraction to an accessible, practical, and well-positioned electric car in the market.
With sales multiplied by five compared to May 2024, Citroën climbs to the 2nd place in the electric market. Its growth continues with a 13% increase in registrations compared to April. In total, the brand registers 12,567 registrations for passenger and utility vehicles in May, achieving an 8.2% market share, which is an increase of 0.95 points compared to last year.
This dynamism is also reflected in the performance of other models: the C4 retains its 2nd place in the compact car segment (C-Hatch), the C3 Aircross gains a position in B-SUV, and the C5 Aircross, currently being renewed, climbs three ranks in the C-SUV segment.
Since the beginning of the year, Citroën has accumulated 67,867 registrations for passenger and utility vehicles. It thus positions itself in 2nd place in the market for 100% electric private vehicles among individual customers.
On the utility vehicle side, the brand reports strong growth, doubling its electric volumes compared to 2024. It now reaches a 13.2% market share in this rapidly expanding segment.
