2018 was the last year of PHEV dominance in Sweden?
While the overall car market in Sweden decreases, plug-in electric cars continue with expansion. In December, some 2,695 new plug-ins were registered, which is 21% more than a year ago at a decent 11% market share.
All-electric cars became more popular in recent months, while the plug-in hybrids note decline:
- BEVs – 1,090 (up 277%)
- PHEVs – 1,605 (down 17%)
The best-selling model in December was Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV (383), followed by Nissan LEAF (343) and Renault ZOE (340).
