Neuzulassungen: Boom bei E-Autos in Deutschland hält an – erneut weniger Verbrenner zugelassen
Im September wurden in Deutschland erneut besonders viele reine Elektroautos neu zugelassen. Im Jahresvergleich stieg die Zahl um fast zehn Prozent. Ein Treiber dürfte die E-Auto-Prämie sein.
Düsseldorf: September continued to witness a surge in the adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) in Germany. The Federal Motor Transport Authority (KBA) reported that approximately 88,600 pure electric cars (BEV) were newly registered in September, which is around 95% more than in the same month last year. This growth can be attributed to the federal government's EV subsidy.
Pure electric cars accounted for more than a third (34.5%) of the new registrations in September, while cars powered by diesel or gasoline together registered about 67,700 new entries, both showing a decline compared to the previous year. Overall, around 256,800 passenger vehicles were newly registered, marking a 9% increase compared to September 2025, according to the KBA.
"The EV subsidy is working, and it's quite strong," stated automotive expert Constantin Gall from the auditing and consulting firm EY in a press release. However, this boom comes at a high cost, funded by tax money. The expert believes the support is precarious, and its discontinuation might again lead to a drop in registration numbers.
The main beneficiaries of the surge seem to be Chinese manufacturers, whose sales and market share significantly increased in September.
