OSLO, Dec. 1 (Xinhua) -- New passenger car registrations in Denmark rose by 6.6 percent year-on-year in November 2025, driven by a strong demand for electric vehicles (EVs), according to data released by the industry organization Mobility Denmark on Monday.

A total of 15,910 new passenger cars were registered in November. The figures indicate that the Danish car market is maintaining strong momentum as the year draws to a close.

In the first 11 months of 2025, 166,130 new passenger cars were registered in Denmark, an increase of 6.8 percent compared to the same period in 2024.

"The increase in November confirms the solid momentum we have seen throughout the year. There is good activity in the car market right now, and therefore we expect a strong finish to the car year 2025," said Mads Rorvig, CEO of Mobility Denmark, in a press release.

EVs continued to capture a significant market share, accounting for 73.7 percent of all new registrations in November. Notably, among private car buyers, EVs made up 91.2 percent of new purchases.

So far in 2025, EVs have accounted for 67.2 percent of all new registrations. Based on these trends, Mobility Denmark projects that there will be 1 million electric cars on Danish roads by 2027.

Rorvig attributed part of the consumer confidence to recent political clarity regarding car taxes.

"The clarification on car taxes in the Finance Act agreement has removed an important element of uncertainty, giving consumers better conditions for making decisions about car purchases," Rorvig said.

According to data from Bilstatistik.dk, the Skoda Elroq was the best-selling model in November with 1,102 units, followed by the Volkswagen ID.4 and the Audi Q4 e-tron.
