Interestingly, plug-in hybrids surged by almost 61 percent year-over-year to 14,285.<\/p>\n<p>The SMMT noted also that the last quarter was a record high in terms of new AC charging point deployment in the country (4,753 units).<\/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: 23,943 (up 20%) and 15.6% share<\/li>\n<li>PHEVs: 14,285 (up 61%) and 9.3% share<\/li>\n<li>Total: 38,228 (up 33%) and 24.9% 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 October 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-october-2023.png\"><\/p>\n<p>So far this year, more than 375,000 new passenger plug-in electric cars have been 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: 262,484 (up 34%) and 16.3% share<\/li>\n<li>PHEVs: 113,278 (up 37%) and 7.1% share<\/li>\n<li>Total: 375,762 (up 35%) and 23.4% 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-october-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-october-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 October, just like in September, none of the stand-alone all-electric models appeared in the top 10 for the month.<\/p>\n<p>However, the Tesla Model Y remains listed in the top 10 year-to-date with 30,087 units, falling one position to fifth.
