Tesla reported a sharp rise in monthly vehicle registrations across several European countries in September, according to data cited by The Wall Street Journal. The surge comes as electric-vehicle adoption accelerates in the region, offsetting declines in combustion-engine sales.
The Journal noted that Tesla’s European deliveries climbed significantly in September, reflecting growing consumer demand for zero-emission vehicles. While exact figures were not disclosed in the report, the publication referenced industry data showing a broader 10% rise in European car sales during the month, driven largely by EV growth.
The increase aligns with trends observed by Bloomberg and the International Council on Clean Transportation, both of which highlighted expanding EV market share and rising competition from Chinese brands. Fuel prices also remained elevated, further improving the cost advantage of electric models.
Tesla’s performance in Europe comes amid ongoing expansion of its Gigafactory in Berlin and continued investment in charging infrastructure. The company has not yet released its full quarterly results for the period.
