Germany is No 1 in Europe for EV production, No 2 in the world

Posted by in categories: sustainability, transportation

Germany’s automakers manufactured around 1.27 million BEVs and PHEVs in 2023, putting it at No. 2 behind China, but 2024 will be bumpy.

The German automotive industry association VDA says that 995,000 purely electric vehicles rolled off German assembly lines in 2023.

China dominates global EV production, but most of its cars are sold domestically. By contrast, 76% of German EVs are sold abroad. The US holds the spot for the world’s third-largest EV maker. And Germany, the home of key automakers such as Volkswagen, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz, leads Europe with more EVs produced than second-placed Spain (256,000) and France (225,000) combined.
