During the first quarter of the year, electric car sales in Mexico grew by almost 300%.
This was reported by the Electro Mobility Association (EMA), the entity that represents the electromobility sector in the country, in its Barometer of the first months of 2025.
Electric cars in Mexico: the numbers
In the report, the entity highlights the increase in zero-emission vehicle sales (a 289.6%) compared to the same period in 2024. According to the published data, the sector has sold in these first three months of the year 20,560 units of EVs (electric vehicles) and PHEVs (plug-in hybrids).
The companies affiliated with EMA sold 20,560 units of EVs and plug-in hybrids.
“An extraordinary growth compared to the 5,277 units sold in the same period last year,” they emphasized. The EMA Barometer also includes data on the recharging network, which “continues to rise.”

In the first quarter of 2025, the total number of recharging points grew by 5.5% from 44,974 at the end of last year to 47,456 connections.
Mexico, with a population of over 126 million, has a fleet of more than 58 million “registered motor vehicles in circulation.”
In this context, Eugenio Grandio, president of EMA, stated: “Beyond geopolitical changes and uncertainties, the adoption of zero-emission vehicles must remain a priority for governments, companies, and users.”
Therefore, he highlighted the variety of available models and options. “Today, with a greater range of models and a reduction in costs, the incorporation of this technology must continue to grow,” he stated.
“Faced with the sustained growth of the electric vehicle fleet and an increasing number of users who demand fast charging services, service stations have a great opportunity,” Grandio added.
“In addition to diversifying their revenues, they can prepare for the future, playing a key role in meeting the mobility needs of all types of users, especially for long-distance travel,” he expressed.
“Reducing emissions”
The goal of EMA, as stated, is “to reduce emissions in the country, promote regulations that accelerate the adoption of zero-emission electric vehicles, promote the development of a charging infrastructure network, and disseminate information about the benefits of these technologies.”
The association, which aims for annual sales of electric vehicles to represent 50% of new cars by 2030, brings together about 20 companies.
Among them: Auteco, BYD, Cesvi, Changan, Conectabee, DiDi, Element Fleet, Edenred, EnergÃa Real, Evergo, FAZT, JAC, S2G Energy, Santander, SEV, Supercool, Tesla, VEMO, Vizeon, Volvo, and Zeekr.
