   UK electric vehicle sales overtake petrol cars for first time, analysis says

   2 outlets · first: Carbon Brief Ev

   Machine summary More new battery electric vehicles were sold in the UK over a 12-month period than petrol cars for the first time, according to Carbon Brief analysis of European Automobile Manufacturers' Association data. Amid a debate concerning the UK mandate on zero-emissions vehicles, this finding arrives, while some unions and the car industry are pushing to water it down.

   1. During the 12 months up to May 2026, UK consumers purchased 516,490 new battery electric vehicles, compared with 504,010 new petrol cars, Carbon Brief's analysis of ACEA data shows.
   2. The car industry argues demand for zero-emissions vehicles is too low to meet the ZEV mandate's requirements, despite the industry having over-complied to date, according to Carbon Brief.
   3. ACEA data shows hybrids were the most popular car type in the UK, with 56,321 sold in May 2026, an increase of 1,181 year-on-year, or 2%.
   4. Battery electric vehicle sales grew 34% year-on-year in May 2026 to 43,931, while petrol car sales fell 14% to 35,068, according to ACEA data cited by Carbon Brief.
   5. Plug-in hybrid sales rose 24% year-on-year in May 2026 to 22,167, according to ACEA data cited by Carbon Brief.
