"In 2023, 11,000 new zero-emission heavy-duty vehicles were sold in the
EU-27—more than double the 5,000 sold in 2022. Zero-emission vehicles were 18%
of all buses and coaches sold, 5% of light and medium trucks, and 0.9% of heavy
trucks. The majority of zero-emission heavy-duty vehicle sales occurred in
three countries: Germany (30%), France (15%), and the Netherlands (15%).
Portugal experienced the most rapid growth, as sales increased from 4
zero-emission heavy-duty vehicles in 2022 to 400 in 2023; almost all of these
were buses, and they were a nearly 4% share of all zero-emission heavy-duty
vehicle sales in the EU-27.
In the fourth quarter of 2023, just over 3,300 new zero-emission heavy-duty
vehicles were sold in the EU-27—a 19% increase from the third quarter. Of
these, 1,700 were buses and coaches, 700 were light and medium trucks, and 900
were heavy trucks. The sales share of zero-emission vehicles in the heavy truck
segment exceeded 1% for the first time, up from 0.8% in the third quarter.
Shares of zero-emission buses and coaches in total sales of that segment
increased from 16% to 22% over the same period, while zero-emission light and
medium trucks dipped from 8% to 6%. In France, sales of zero-emission vehicles
doubled from 200 units in the third quarter to 460 units in the fourth quarter
of 2023."
