Denmark's Electric Car Fleet Exceeds 750,000 Vehicles

Denmark now has over 750,000 registered fully electric cars.

The fleet grew by 50,000 vehicles in just two months.

This milestone comes more than three years ahead of schedule.

Industry group Mobility Denmark reported the figures from bilstatistik.dk.

In 2020, a government commission set a goal for 2030.

That target aimed for 750,000 low- and zero-emission cars.

It included both pure electric vehicles and plug-in hybrids.

Now, pure electric cars alone have reached that total.

Tesla Model Y is the most popular electric car in Denmark.

It has 53,576 registered vehicles.

The Volkswagen ID.4 and Skoda Enyaq iV follow as top choices.

The rapid shift supports Denmark’s target to cut emissions by 70 percent by 2030.

Politicians also agreed to delay a planned tax hike on electric car registrations.

The tax increase was originally scheduled for 2027.

Mobility Denmark chief Mads Rørvig welcomed the delay.

He said it provides greater certainty for car buyers.

He urged lawmakers to remove the registration tax permanently.
