PRESS EMBARGO: NEW PASSENGER CAR REGISTRATIONS BY ALTERNATIVE FUEL TYPE IN THE EUROPEAN UNION 1 Quarter 2 2016 Alternative fuel vehicle registrations: +0.6% in second quarter of 2016 In the second quarter of 2016, alternative fuel vehicle (AFV) registrations in the EU remained stable (+0.6%), totalling 147,784 units. Results were diverse among different vehicle categories. On the one hand, demand for electrically chargeable vehicles (ECVs) showed moderate growth (+7.1%) during the second quarter of the year. This growth was supported by both battery (+5.1%) and plug in electric vehicles (+9.6%). Registrations of new hybrid electric vehicle (HEV) also continued their positive momentum, posting a double digit gain (+22.6%) and reaching 63,707 units. On the other hand, new registrations of cars powered by propane, ethanol or natural gas (NGV) showed a doubledigit decline ( 20.8%) during Q2 2016, totalling 50,211 vehicles. Among the EU s major markets, Spain saw the largest increase in AFV registrations over the last quarter (+84.4%), followed by the UK (+18.4%). Growth in these countries was fully driven by the electric and hybrid electric segments. Italy performed less well compared to Q2 2015 ( 14.7%), mainly due to a decline in registrations of propane and gas fuelled cars. However, at the same time Italian registrations in the hybrid segment posted a significant increase (+46.1%). France showed a mild decline ( 9.4%) in total AFV registrations, mainly due to a drop in the HEV and NGV segments. Germany remained stable ( 0.3%) in the second quarter, balancing the decline in propane and gasfuelled car sales with an increase in hybrid registrations. 1 Data for Croatia, Cyprus, Luxembourg, Malta and Slovenia is not available Page 1 of 7
