What happened
The group counted 1.64 million battery-electric cars sold in the EU from January through August, up 45% year on year and equal to 22% of the market. Model choice rose 50% in a year.
European brands supplied nearly 60% of available models and added 16 in the first half; Chinese brands held 21% and added 11. These are advocacy-group figures and should be read alongside official registration data.
Why it matters
More affordable models and regulation appear to be widening supply, but sales growth alone does not establish charging adequacy, battery economics or manufacturer profitability.
What to watch
Watch official registrations, sub-€25,000 deliveries, charging build-out, margins and country-level differences.
