Electric vehicle sales in Australia are off to a strong start in 2025, already outpacing the first half of last year, according to the Electric Vehicle Council.

New figures from the EVC and other sources show that more than 14,000 additional battery electric (BEV) and plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEV) have been sold in Australia so far this year compared to the same period in 2024.

Between January and June 2025, EVs accounted for more than 12 per cent of all new car sales, up from 9.6 per cent during the same period last year.

In June 2025 alone, electric vehicles accounted for almost 16 per cent of all new cars sold.&nbsp;

Electric Vehicle Council CEO Julie Delvecchio said:&nbsp;“Electric vehicle sales are powering ahead in 2025 with more Australians than ever before getting behind the wheel.

“An additional 14,000 EVs sold in the first half of this year compared to the same period the year before. Monthly EV sales set a new Australian record in June as well, with market share breaking through 15 per cent for the first time ever.

“The transition to electric vehicles is picking up speed - that’s because of federal government support through policies and incentives, and more Australians recognising that making the switch is good for the environment and their wallets.

“We’ve seen really important changes come into effect in Australia this year in the New Vehicle Efficiency Standard which is bringing consumers more choice in electric cars and more competitive prices.&nbsp;

“More than 350,000 people are driving EVs in Australia today: tradies in utes, mums and dads ferrying their kids in SUVs, suburban dwellers zipping around in hatchbacks and small business owners delivering goods from vans. Once people make the switch to electric driving, they tend to stick to it.&nbsp;

“While the growth in electric vehicle sales is encouraging, it’s crucial that Australia maintains this momentum by expanding infrastructure, increasing incentives, and supporting innovation such as vehicle-to-grid technology.

“More EVs on our roads benefit all Australians, delivering quieter streets, cleaner air, and greater protection for our environment.”
