After nine months of 2023, the total number of new registrations amounted to 1,451,908 (up 20 percent year-over-year).<\/p>\n<p>The plug-in electric car segment also expanded, but only slightly faster than the general market.<\/p>\n<p>The Society of Motor Manufacturers and Traders (SMMT) reports that 63,858 new plug-in cars were registered last month (27 percent more than a year ago), which is 23.4 percent of the total market (compared to 20.4 percent a year ago). For reference, non-rechargeable hybrids noted 38,014 new registrations and account for 13.9 percent of the market.<\/p>\n<p>In September, all-electric car registrations amounted to 45,323 (up 19 percent year-over-year). It&#8217;s the 41st consecutive month of growth year-over-year, but there is a catch. The growth is slower than the general market and related solely to fleet purchases (up 50.6 percent), as private BEV registrations fell by 14.3 percent.<\/p>\n<p>Plug-in hybrids, on the other hand, noted a solid 51 percent increase year-over-year, although the volume of 18,535 is far lower than in the case of BEVs.<\/p>\n<p>Plug-in car registrations in the UK last month (YOY change):<\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>BEVs: 45,323 (up 19%) and 16.6% share<\/li>\n<li>PHEVs: 18,535 (up 51%) and 6.8% share<\/li>\n<li>Total: 63,858 (up 27%) and 23.4% share<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><span><svg class=\"arrow-heading\"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/insideevs.com\/design\/dist\/critical\/icons\/sprite-common-0-dc6b7de11d922cb73553899f27128303.svg#sqr-arrow\"\/><\/svg><\/span>Plug-in electric car registrations in the UK \u2013 September 2023<\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/custom\/thumbnail\/plug-in-electric-car-registrations-in-the-uk-september-2023.png\"><\/p>\n<p>So far this year, more than 337,000 new passenger plug-in electric cars were registered in the UK, which is 35 percent more than a year ago and more than one-fifth of the market.<\/p>\n<p>Plug-in car registrations in the UK year-to-date (YOY change):<\/p>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: disc;\">\n<li>BEVs: 238,541 (up 36%) and 16.4% share<\/li>\n<li>PHEVs: 98,993 (up 34%) and 6.8% share<\/li>\n<li>Total: 337,534 (up 35%) and 23.2% share<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For reference, in the 12 months of 2022, more than 368,000 new passenger plug-in cars were registered in the UK, reaching an average market share of 22.8%.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/custom\/thumbnail\/plug-in-electric-car-registrations-in-the-uk-september-2023-b.png\"><\/p>\n<p>More details, also including other powertrain types:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.motor1.com\/images\/custom\/thumbnail\/plug-in-electric-car-registrations-in-the-uk-september-2023-c.jpg\"><\/p>\n<h3><span><svg class=\"arrow-heading\"><use xlink:href=\"https:\/\/insideevs.com\/design\/dist\/critical\/icons\/sprite-common-0-dc6b7de11d922cb73553899f27128303.svg#sqr-arrow\"\/><\/svg><\/span>Top models<\/h3>\n<p>In September, none of the stand-alone all-electric models appeared in the top 10 for the month, although the Tesla Model Y was pretty close to 10th position, with 4,029 new registrations.<\/p>\n<p>The Tesla Model Y had a weaker month of deliveries, considering 8,315 units a year ago, and other results in the final month of a quarter (5,539 in June and 8,123 in March).
