EU new car sales rose in September, driven by hybrids and electric vehicles


New registrations of passenger cars increased in September, driven by increased sales of fully electric and hybrid electric vehicles, the Association of European Automobile Manufacturers announced on Friday.

Registrations, which reflect sales, rose 9.2% to 861,062 units last month from a year earlier, according to the industry group known as ACEA. This is the 14th consecutive month of growth in the European auto market, the association said, after parts shortages hurt auto sales last year.
