World EV Sales - Full Year 2024 (OEMs)

In 2024, Tesla was the best selling BEV maker, with 17% share, followed by BYD (16%)...

...But if we add PHEVs to the tally, BYD jumps ahead, with a robust 25% share, while Tesla drops to Second place, with 10% share, less than half of BYD...

In both cases, Geely ended the year in 3rd, with around 8% share.

This means that in 2025, Geely might have a go at Tesla's runner-up spot in the BEV+PHEV ranking.

Best Selling Legacy OEM in both rankings was the VW Group, 5th in the BEV table, and 4th in the PHEV+BEV table.

My bets for the 2025 top 5 OEMs:
