New data from StatsCan shows BEVs now represent nearly two per cent of all registered vehicles in Canada
EV sales fell over 50 per cent in Quebec in Q1 2025 “significantly impacting the national total,” says Statistics Canada
Sales for zero-emission vehicles across Canada in Q4 hit 18.3 per cent: 202,103 battery-electric and 68,882 plug-in hybrids sold in 2024
Of the 75,636-plus zero-emission vehicles newly registered in Canada in Q3 2024, 74 per cent were battery-electric vehicles
The StatsCan data shows there was an incremental increase in new battery-electric vehicle registrations in 2023 over the previous year
More than 65,000 zero-emission vehicles were registered in Q2 2024 — a 30 per cent quarter-over-quarter increase
The overall decline reflects a drop in battery electric vehicle registrations nationally to 8.2 per cent, compared to 9 per cent in Q4, while plug-in hybrid registrations held steady at 3 per cent
Zero-emission vehicle registrations reached 12.1 per cent, gaining more than two percentage points of market share, according to Statistics Canada
Despite a sluggish start to the year all provinces saw more ZEV registrations in Q1 2023 than the first quarter of 2022
Zero-emission vehicle registrations of 33,399 units in Q4 2022, including 27,754 battery electrics, pushed Canada’s ZEV market share to an all-time high, up from 8.7 per cent in Q3
