In April, 3,007 electric vehicles (new and used) were added to Ukraine’s vehicle fleet, which is 48% less than in April 2025 but 49% more than in March of this year, Ukravtoprom reported on its Telegram channel.
The majority of electric vehicles registered during the month were passenger cars—2,837 units (of which 536 were new and 2,301 were used), while only nine of the 170 commercial electric vehicles were new.
The most popular new electric vehicles in March were the BYD Leopard 3 – 96 units (34 units in March 2026); BYD Sea Lion 06 – 73 units (30 units); MG 4 EV – 38 units (not in the top five); Volkswagen ID.UNYX – 36 units (21 units) and Zeekr 001 – 33 units (30 units).
Among used vehicles, the most frequently registered for the first time were the Nissan Leaf – 345 units (226 units in March of this year); Tesla Model Y – 283 units (212 units); Tesla Model 3 – 265 units (210 units); Renault Zoe – 120 units (101 units) and Chevrolet Bolt – 117 units.
As reported, electric vehicles are gradually seeing a resurgence in demand and slowing the rate of decline compared to the same periods last year following a slump at the beginning of this year, particularly amid rising fuel prices (gasoline and diesel) at gas stations.
In 2025, Ukraine’s vehicle fleet was expanded by 110,200 electric vehicles—twice as many as the previous year. The share of new vehicles was 20%, compared to 24% in 2024.
In particular, in December, the last month of VAT-free customs clearance for electric vehicles, demand for them increased 8.6-fold compared to December 2024—to 32,800 units.
