In September, the number of new passenger car registrations in Norway decreased by more than 29 percent year-over-year to 10,342. The year-to-date result remains in the red with 95,499 units registered (down 7.1 percent year-over-year).<\/p>\n
Interestingly, rechargeable car sales also decreased year-over-year, but because the drop was slightly lower than the market average, the market share increased to the highest level ever recorded.<\/p>\n
According to the Norwegian Road Federation (OFV), 9,617 new passenger plug-in cars were registered last month (down 26 percent year-over-year), which was 93.0 percent of the total volume (compared to 89.1 percent a year ago).<\/p>\n
This number includes 9,000 all-electric cars (down 21 percent year-over-year) and 617 plug-in hybrids (down 63 percent year-over-year). PHEVs were down year-over-year for the 21st consecutive month.<\/p>\n
