French drivers showed their excellent taste in February 2026, and the numbers are pure joy for everyone who loves the future of driving!
The official Plateforme Automobile (PFA) report released on March 1 tells the happy story. Out of 120,764 new passenger vehicles registered last month, 32,370 were all-electric. That’s more than one in every four new vehicles (26.8%). This represents a wonderful 27.8% growth compared to February 2025!
Combustion-engine vehicles managed only 18,115 registrations, just 15% of the market, and dropped a tough 48% year-over-year. All-electric vehicles outsold gasoline vehicles by nearly 80%. What a fantastic shift!
Tesla was right at the heart of the celebration, registering 3,715 all-electric vehicles in France — a strong 55.11% increase from last year. The Tesla Model Y stole the show with 3,034 units sold in February alone. Through the first two months of 2026, the Model Y has already delivered 3,647 units and earned the No. 17 spot on France’s Top 100 best-selling passenger vehicles.
This great news is made even better by Tesla’s extensive Supercharger network in France. With over 3,400 stalls open to all-electric vehicles, not just Teslas, drivers of every brand can enjoy fast, reliable charging. Tesla Charging is helping the entire all-electric movement grow stronger every day!
