    The 35% number is incl. PHEV yes. Pure BEV is still slightly below 20%

      It’s weird that they’d use Germany as the example where pure BEV is below 20%. As of August 2023, the share of new BEV + Hybrid vehicles in the UK is 38%. By the end of the year we could be seeing as many as 1 in 4 new cars being pure battery electric.

        What? So far this year BEVs accounted for 16.3% of new cars sales in UK, and PHEVs for 7.1%, for total of 23.4%. Which is solid result but definitely behind Germany.
