According to the association Avere-France, 43,994 vehicles were registered in the country in July 2025, a 9.4% increase compared to July 2024. Of this total, 31,107 were electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs).
“Good news for the summer: July has finally exceeded our forecasts. With 31,107 electrified vehicles, the market has returned to normal, recording a +9.40% growth,” commented Clément Molizon, General Delegate of Avere-France.
Since the start of the year, only April had shown an increase (+0.95%). This momentum is entirely driven by fully electric vehicles (22,452 units, +16.76%), while plug-in hybrids saw their seventh consecutive monthly decline (8,655 units, -5.96%).
Although the PHEV market continues to shrink, the downward trend is becoming less steep (-48.2% in the first quarter, -14.2% in the second).

He added: “The return of social leasing in September could give the private market a boost and prevent 2025 from ending in the red.”
