The update came from FDM consumer economist Ilyas Dogru, who posted on his official X account on Friday: “Today, electric cars outnumber diesel cars on Danish roads. The powertrain’s market share fell 40.93% from the 4.30% recorded in 2024. Combined, new-energy vehicles (NEVs, including BEVs and PHEVs) accounted for 71.07% of 2025 registrations, up from 53.24% in 2024. Zero-emission vehicles (BEVs and fuel-cell EVs) pay 40% of the standard registration tax, plus a DKK 165,500 ($26,400) deduction. These measures, alongside high taxes on fossil-fuel vehicles, have helped Denmark rank among Europe’s top EV adopters, trailing only Norway in market share.
