PSA Peugeot Citroën and General Electric last week signed a technology and commercial cooperation agreement to collaborate towards establishing reliable business models for Electrical Mobility (EV), which includes both Fixed Battery Electrical Vehicles (FBEV) and Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicles (PHEV). million globally.
Several factors affected this emission increase, including an increase in the average mass and only a limited increase of the share of electric vans (BEV sand PHEV) from 0.8% On average, the CO 2 emissions of diesel cars (127.0 More than 9 out of 10 newly registered vans still running on diesel. in 2018 to 1.3% g CO 2 /km).
Diesel cars made up 45% of the new registrations.

Combining BEV and PHEV deliveries, EV sales in Portugal grew by 10% in 2024. BEV deliveries in Portugal grew by 15.2%
Markets were significantly hit in Italy, France, Spain, Austria, Ireland, Slovenia, Greece and Portugal, where the combined volume fell from 634,600 units in March 2019 to 161,800 units last month. This result follows declines in January and February, taking the quarterly volume down to 3.04 million units. 29f21c0cbca83138705c33c58e16f247. >.
A recent study from the Global EV Drivers Alliance (GEVA) has determined that less than 1% of electric vehicle drivers wish to switch back to driving a gasoline or diesel-powered car. A total of 4% of EV drivers will purchase a hybrid or plug-in hybrid vehicle (PHEV) if they had to replace their vehicle tomorrow.

Elsewhere, Portugal fell 9.5%, alongside Belgium (down 7.3%), the Netherlands (down 6.2%), Ireland (down 6%), Sweden (down 5.6%) and Greece (down 1.4%). Austria (up 6.8%), the Czech Republic (up 3.8% ) and Portugal (up 3.8%) also recorded an improvement. PHEVs accounted for 6.8% million deliveries. respectively. year on year.

Of the five-digit sales markets, notable performances were recorded in Hungary (up 19.4%), Romania (up 17.3%) and Portugal (up 13.3%). Diesel carries the market Diesel powertrains carried the EU LCV market in the full year, accounting for 84.5% Diesel volumes increased by 10.5% with 149,119 diesel registrations.
This included Hungary (up 19.1%), Poland (up 17.6%), Austria (up 16.5%), the Netherlands (up 13.7%) and Portugal (up 10.3%). PHEVs in freefall While BEVs returned to growth, PHEVs struggled in October. This loss comes despite a strong performance in Germany, where PHEVs were up by 18.2%. Diesel registrations fell 7.6%
Regional inconsistencies EV adoption, including BEVs and plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) is not consistent across Europe. Portugal is an outlier in this trend, as every third car registered in the country last year was an EV. It is unlikely that developed EV markets, like the Nordics and Portugal, will be affected.

plugin hybrids (PHEVs). With diesel-only powertrains now standing at 11.7% The Nordics support a much higher median (Norway 2021, €34,800), as does Germany (2021 – €33,900) whereas much of southern Europe is lower still (Portugal 2021 – €21,300). February’s combined plugin result of 23.8% comprised 15.5%
Other major regions likely to have similar evolution: diesel in Europe currently about 50% of the ICE sales, but that fraction is slowly decreasing. From our studies of vehicle electrification, we have concluded that PHEVs offer the most viable path toward powering more vehicle miles with electricity.
Conversely, deliveries dropped in Greece (down 16.4%), Belgium (down 13%), Portugal (down 7.8%), Romania (down 6.4%), Czechia (down 5%), the Netherlands (down 4.6%). PHEVs fall Plug-in hybrid (PHEV) deliveries fell by 8.5% Combining BEV and PHEV figures, electric vehicle ( EV ) deliveries improved by 16.2% in January.
