Europe Hybrid Vehicle Market Report and Forecast 2025-2034

The Europe hybrid vehicle market attained a volume of 5.58 Million Units in 2024. The industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.30% during the forecast period of 2025-2034 to attain a volume of 12.39 Million Units by 2034.

Europe Hybrid Vehicle Market Growth

Growth in the Europe hybrid vehicle market is boosted by full hybrid vehicles which feature more robust electric motors for enhanced performance.

Full hybrids are also called self-charging hybrids. They have a stronger electric motor and battery system than mild hybrids. Full hybrids can run on electricity only at slow speeds, usually while driving through cities or in heavy traffic. Based on current driving conditions, they smoothly switch between the internal combustion engine and the electric motor to reduce fuel consumption and emissions.

Hybrid vehicles in the domestic region are likely to do well given government subsidies and rising concerns among citizens regarding sustainability and climate change. As of May 2024, BMW planned to invest USD 2.8 billion in China.

Plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEVs) provide the longest range of all kinds of hybrid cars that can be driven on electricity alone. This type of car has larger battery packs which can be recharged by plugging into an external electrical source such as a wall socket or charging station. As more charging stations appear throughout Europe together with incentives for buying EVs being offered by governments hybrid electric vehicles are likely to do well.
