This report shows Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) registered in New Zealand including passenger cars, vans, and utes (source NZTA). Year-to-date (YTD) represents total registrations for the current calendar year. YTD change shows the percentage increase or decrease compared to the same period last year. Note that a vehicle registration may not be a 'sale' - it could be a dealer demo vehicle.
