Year-to-Date Growth
The year has seen a strong increase in EV sales, with a total of 92,885 electric vehicles registered thus far in 2025. This growth trajectory indicates a sustained interest in EVs among Australian consumers.
Challenges and Future Outlook
While the uptake of battery electric vehicles is impressive, industry leaders call for continued investment in EV charging infrastructure. According to Tony Weber, CEO of the FCAI, the variety of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) has increased to 110 model offerings available in 2025. The aim is to enhance consumer confidence in this new technology, promoting more widespread adoption.
The final months of 2025 are expected to continue this upward trend, with incentives likely to push total EV sales beyond 100,000 units, marking it as the biggest year for BEVs in Australia.
