Plug-in electric vehicles in New Zealand
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The initial adoption of plug-in electric vehicles in New Zealand was supported by New Zealand Government policies, including monetary incentives such as electric vehicle discounts, exemptions from road user charges, and electric vehicle sales targets.[2][3][4][5] By 2023 year-end[update], there were 106,942 registered plug-in electric vehicles in New Zealand, consisting of 76,550 battery-electric vehicles (BEV) and 30,392 plug-in hybrid vehicles (PHEV), together making up 2.2% of the national fleet of 4.8 million vehicles.[6] In 2023, 27.2 percent of all new car registrations were plug-in electric vehicles.[7]
