According to Avere-France, the number of electric and plug-in hybrid cars on the road surpassed one million in October 2022.
The strategic advisory body of the automotive sector (CSF) had set a goal for the end of 2022 for electrified cars. It hoped that the vehicle fleet would reach 1 million units, with 600,000 electric and 400,000 plug-in hybrids. By the end of October, this target has already been exceeded. Because the new passenger and utility vehicle market continues to grow: +6% in October 2022 and even +10% over the year.
+36% of electric cars in one year
The AVERE-France gauge for October 2022 records the figures of electric and plug-in hybrid cars on the road. There were 1,025,602 as of October 31, representing a 43% increase in one year. The distribution still favors electric cars, accounting for nearly two-thirds of the volume. However, their growth is slower than that of plug-in hybrids.
| As of October 31, 2022 | As of October 31, 2021 | Change | |
| Electric cars | 639,673 | 469,750 | +36% |
| Plug-in hybrid cars | 385,929 | 246,325 | +57% |
| Total electrified | 1,025,602 | 716,075 | +43% |
“Taking into account the entire French vehicle fleet, all energy types included, which is around 41 million vehicles, electric and plug-in hybrid models represented more than 2.4% of the total fleet,” explains Clément Molizon, CEO of Avere-France, while noting that the figure is only “1.5% considering only 100% electric vehicles.”
