Hybrid Sales Surge in BC, Electric Registrations Drop
Hybrid vehicle sales surge in British Columbia, while electric vehicle registrations drop. In 2025, only 18.3% of new vehicles were zero-emission, down from 22.8% the previous year. Hybrids now make up 20.9% of registrations, outpacing electric vehicles. Consumers prefer hybrids for reliability and easier transition, despite subsidies ending and high electric prices causing range worries. British Columbia led Canada in electric uptake at 22.5% in the final quarter of 2025, with officials hoping cheaper imports and higher gas prices will boost electric vehicle sales.
